We could rename Oolite-PC to Oolite-Microsoft but I don't quite know where that'd leave Oolite-Linux.
If you want to confuse everybody rename all 3 to Oolite-Intel1, Oolite-Intel2, Oolite-Intel3 (yes yes, I know x86 architecture doesn't necessarily imply Intel
)The original point is well taken, I think it's just one of those oddities that we live with and everybody magically knows what we are talking about.
@Smivs: Oh btw, "hoover" is not the convention in the US where it is mostly referred to as a vacuum cleaner, and not by a brand name. This seems to be a quirk of the UK. However the US does have a similar quirk (at least one!) whereby we don't use "flasks" we use "Thermos's". In fact, if you ask for a "flask" you may well be directed to hip flasks. I think they are referred to as "flasks" in the UK, no?. The Thermos website actually calls them a "vacuum insulated bottle", seems like a bit of a mouthful to me. From this day forward we shall now universally speak of "vibs".
