It has been a continuing source of amazement to me that people who create new things, especially in the computer world, do not create new unique names for them. Sometimes it's just arrogance and a statement of strength. When Microsoft calls their windowing software Windows they are confident that they are going to get enough search results in comparison to people who want glass things to go on the side of their house.
But little guys shouldn't make the same choice, and lose themselves.
