Nissan Computer Corporation provides sales and service of personal computers, servers, computer parts, and internet hosting and development. It registered the domain nissan.com in 1994, five years before another company sought to use it. Nissan Computer found itself embroiled in a legal battle with Nissan Motors over the use of the name Nissan and the domain name nissan.com. Nissan Motors considers Nissan Computer's use of the name to be trademark dilution, and lay claim to the domain by alleging cyber squatting. However, the computer company is named after its owner, Uzi Nissan. Nissan Motors, in the United States, uses a website address of nissanusa.com.
The case has received national attention in the United States.
