     Friend of mine was over on the weekend - I was doing some jpg work..and he
asked what software I was using - when I told him it's called the Gimp, he fell
over laughing. His comment "what is it about Linux geeks that they pick these
weird names" - even when I explained its origin it didn't help - He added "Ask a
car maker (like Ford) whether model names (like Edsel) are important". 
And this stuff like "GNU is not  Unix" drives me crazy.
