Do people just skim, or do they actually read? As I stated in my post on the 1st page:

I don't mind you ripping my text (some of it verbatim).
That's not the part that bugs me, imitation is what makes the world go round. The part that bugs me is that he copied the name "MyRig"... If you look at the links people provide (and other sites / forums), people come up with a "unique" name for their add-on's... "PC Specs", "My System", "PCDB", "OCDB", etc... Each name is unique because each person took the time to write their own add-on.
What I'm ticked about is the duplication of the name, so yes I would appreciate it if you came up with your own name instead of just using "MyRig". Every author here at vB.org comes up with unique names for their add-on's, even though some do the same thing. How do you think the authors of vBulletin(.com) would feel if someone else created a forum software and decided to call it "vBulletin" just because it did the same thing? What about if someone else made a new soft drink and called it "Coke"?
