Here's an article on [Techdirt](http://techdirt.com/articles/20071010/003145.shtml) about how virtual Aeron Chairs (at Second Life) may or may not violate the rights of furniture company Herman Miller.

From the article:
[quote]The company claims that these virtual Aeron chairs violate both copyrights and trademarks, but it's an open question whether or not that's necessarily true. The trademark claims may be somewhat stronger, but there's a point at which you need to take a step back and simply ask what's the harm being done here? It's a virtual world.[/quote]
