Keach, MoonMan, et al,
Great forum, great subject, great participants and participation. Yes,
'periodically' has its time and it appears its time has come. Public
THANKS to IPC for their support in ALL arena's.
I for one do not appreciate the way some companies do business and
although I did not partake in the thread I did read every posting and in
the interest of expanding knowledge and documenting 'new vocabulary' I
would like to present the following list for review by all. And if the
discussion continues off-line please add my address to the distribution.
Bloatware:
Metastable: (I had the term "metastable" explained to me by
being told to imagine a pyramid balancing on its point.)
Microsloth:
Microsuck:
Microswill:
Micro$oft:
(Interesting note: This is
the only term that Eudora spell check does not 'tag' as misspelled)
Spondulacks:
Thingummies:
Weindoz:
Windoze:
Thanking one and all. If you would like to submit any other terms
(off-line) I would be happy to add them. Daffynitions would also be
appropriate. I will make the compiled list available to one and all later
with an announcement as to where it can be found.
Richard
At 10:37 AM 1/7/02 -0600, Keach reminded us:
Periodically we have to send out a reminder that Technet is a technical forum, for discussing electronics manufacturing issues. This is one of those times. Since there are over 1,000 subscribers on the forum, there will be occasional off-topic discussions that will stir up heated discussion due to the subject and the number of people subscribed.-snip-
