   Does that mean, by extrapolation, that I should pronounce Steve Jobs'
   new company "NeXT" as "Knee-Zit"? Just wondering.

You don't think a StUdLY cAPiTaLisT like Steve Jobs would want people
to think he was going to come out with another XT clone, do you? c(-;

(Chanting "m-x load studlycaps" in Unipress Emacs, or "m-x
load-library studly" in Gnu Emacs may help to elucidate.)
