According to Clarke, it stood for _H_euristically Programmed _AL_gorithmic
Computer but it sounds like a cop-out to me.
I subscribe to the "letter shift from IBM" theory.

On another tangent Do a similar letter shift for WNT (Windows NT)

Re: OT Re: POD, what is that? [7:10128]

2001-06-27 Thread Gareth Hinton

"IBM contributed advice about computers of the future, but insisted that
their logo's be removed from the on-board computer once they realised that
it was to become an errant device (and it was on there originally -
apparently - a friend of mine was working at the Borehamwood Elstree film
studio's while it was made). IBM were even less pleased when it was realised
that HAL, the name of the computer, was IBM's name with all the letters
displaced by one character. The producers maintain that this was
coincidence, but the conspiracy theorists maintain that it was Kubrick and
Clarke having a swipe at the computer monolith."

Created more of a legend and less of a court case to deny it I should think.

Before anyone says it IT IS NOT ONE LETTER TO THE LEFT OF IBM.  The name

Irvana Illinois.  Inception date in 1997.

Arthur C. Clark said that the one great mistake that they made was the
actual size of the machine which he now wishes had been much smaller.

Once again just like Dallas and Lee Harvey Oswald you got it wrong  (by the
way I fired that rifle its impossible unless your alien or something)!  This
