i think about "apple"
in fact before macintoshes /iphone's it was the name of the music band "the beatles" , they sued apple for taking their name
and agreed that they coudl share the name as long as their dont go into the music business ... later came ipods& itunes ....

So i think a trademark might be "shared" depending on the usage , you know MSX must havebeenused for cars and many others engines ...
if you look after msx on ebay ... u can buy a jetski ...

Not 'shared', but used in unrelated markets = okay. As soon as they'd sell a home computer, they'd have to talk to MSX trademark owners (whoever that is these days).
