dan - re: Pentium hoaky name

It never ceases to amaze how people project their own feelings and perceptions onto the Universe At Large. I have numerous friends who are not in the computer industry, and not once did one of them, even in jest, come up and say, "Why did you Intel guys saddle the chip I have in my computer with a hoaky name like Pentium?" Not once.
