@Quinnypig

wasn't it Google who didn't want us to use the name as a verb?

I'll google it later

openglx,

@jpmens @Quinnypig I have this from an old newspaper article, I'll send you a Xerox (in Brazil we say Xerox for photocopy)

@openglx

I think many mcmericans also use the term 'xerox' for that. We Europeans are a bit more product agnostic and typically say 'photocopy'.

However, there are plenty of exceptions. Eg in Germany a paper handkerchief is a 'Tempo' (brand name) :-)
