Tad - RE: "Wouldn't it have been tremendous guerilla marketing to have
had a "Name the K-7" contest?"

After the Athlon name became known to us and seeing the negative reaction by some, I bet many entries would be K7.

RE: "So why not go for alliteration and good imagery with Athena."

That doesn't sound tough enough, but I shouldn't shoot your ideas down when I haven't come up with any of my own. Would the marketing include Xena - the warrior princess?
