ROTFL! Next will com "bioDiesel!" Posted by davide on July 17 2006,08:16
it's a nice idea! we can keep the acronym DSL, thus saving history, original name, google cache and so on...and start talking about diesel, which is an easy-to-remember name.I have to stress, though,that dsl became famous even with a not-easy-to-remember acronym, and despite crictics about the "damn" word in it. I like the idea, anyway. Posted by muskrat on July 18 2006,02:37

I borrowed the fish elements from daveed to convey the notion of clustering. I could get behind "Diesel" also. The post sent me searching the web for free images. You could have the rear view of a tanker with a hazmat label with Tux over the letters "DSL" and the version number. <grin> |
