No longer a newbie, moving up!
I think it is a interesting debate.
"Can you Xerox that form for me?"
The word Xerox is commonly used, but I don't think it create a problem. Even if someone put that line in a movie. (of course, I could be wrong ) However, if I use for marketing a product, that's a different story.
I think the Judge will look at if indeed people may think the product is related to the TM owner.
i.e. Nissan Computer (Owner of nissan.com) vs Nissan Motor (The car maker)
