Hi all, the ebay/ebid conversation has got me curious.. so forgive me for
this OT question.

Has anyone on ILUG tried registering a private company so that they can
get their domain name of choice?  What is the process, and is it
expensive? Oh and how close to your domain name do you need to make your
company name?
