I wonder what is the marketing idea behind the name "Rocket" ?   To me it 
invokes late 1950 - 1960's Sputnik/Apollo technology to an epoch when cars 
designs were made to look like rockets, when there was a hockey player 
nicknamed "Maurice The Rocket Richard" and people watched "Flash Gordon" on a 
black and white television.

When I hear Rocket I think "retro" like a  LP Player, a typewriter, a PDP-1.  

Wouldn't one want a software product to sound more state of the art ?

Sci-fi hasn't used the term "Rocketship" in decades.
