TED, re Bigits:
I think there is another crisis here that deserves a full write-up in a Garbage Group report:

The world is rapidly running out of names for Y2K products, services and companies!!!!

Most of the words that suggest any kind of worthwhile activity, computerized or not, have already been suffixed with "2000" and registered as trademarks. Some of the early leaders saw this coming and gave up the pretense of a meaningful name altogether (Ardes????). And those wacky Monty Python Knights Who Say "Na!" came up with this:
year2000.com

But now it seems that more and more folks are just putting a "B" in front of any real word. First Mr Beamer and his bidgits. (I wonder if he will start a Bigital Equipment Corp., and instantly lose billions of bollars?)

Now look at these guys jumping on the Bandwagon:
