Oh come on. Every multimeter I've ever owned was yellow. The Sparkfun multimeters look like every other cheap multimeter, and decidedly unlike Fluke's. It's not even the same damn shade of yellow.

This is pointless waste and a huge scandal.

Fluke is yellow border with a dark gray/black face. Not 'yellow multimeter'.

Does that mean Fluke forfeits the right to try and stop the flow of knockoff products?

Did you miss where I said "The Sparkfun multimeters look like every other cheap multimeter, and decidedly unlike Fluke's"? I reject the premise that any yellow multimeter is a "knockoff product". You can buy similar multimeters in any Radio Shack in the world.
