    i wouldnt touch it, infact, I may ask you registrar to delete it.

    But it would be a good name to put a parody on..

    Too bad its TM infinging..

    BillGates.com would b fine, wouldnt it?
    lol

    Decisions have cut against the registrant where the domain itself does not contain criticism or a parody (i.e. microsoftsucks.com). What you have is a typo and any parody may appear as a contrived attempt to create a legitimate interest in the name.
