I can verify this. We had a guy here last week from London. He kept talking
about updating the roots in the rooter. Took me a minute to figure out what
he was talking about.

Take a look here:

http://www.dictionary.com/cgi-bin/dict.pl?term=router

The funny thing is that it can be pronounced different ways.

I, being from Denmark, have used the word both there and in Houston, Texas
where I have lived for the last four years, and both places I have always
used and heard it pronounced "rau-dor".

I have never heard it pronounced "roo-ter" - not even at Hooters :-)

Hth,

Ole
