Hi, all -- Just a question after writing a blog item about this great distro.
So how do you pronounce VSIDO?
Vuh-SID-oh?
Vee-SID-oh?
E-I-E-I-O? (the Old MacDonald version)
Just curious. Also, I think I have an idea where the distro gets it's name, but I'll save that for another discussion.
V Sid Oh
:)
I swear I am not vain, not at all... ::) ??? 8)
I'm a rebel: "sido" being the past participle of ser (to be) = were
vee-seedoh :D
Just because I'd bet most would go with "vee-SID-o"
OK, that's all garbage: vee-sid-oh is my choice!
Thanks. I talked about it last week briefly in a presentation at Felton LUG, and I called it vuh-SID-oh, accent on the Sid. Thanks for the correction.
[It also occurred to me that it could be a Roman Numeral 5-Sid-Zero, but I thought I'd leave that one alone.]
As for the name: Is it V(ast)-SID-O(ne)?
That would be it... Vanity aside, it is unique, no?
YUP!
Odd.... I knew where the name came from and I still pronounce it wrong in my head :D
Vee-Side-Oh ...... yes I realize this is incorrect and makes very little sense but that little devil that told me to install KDE also told me how to pronounce it!
↑ :D :D :D
Can I have a side of GNU with that please!

It is, indeed, and an excellent naming convention. However, it took me awhile to figure that one out.
Vanity would be "Me-Sid-Oh" ;)

In the Sunday Morning Linux Review there was a lot of discussion about the name... I suppose I could hyphenate it :D
V-SID-O
I put a short i between the V and the S.

Wow, cool review on SMLR! Mary Tomich who does the review actually mentions she came across the VSIDO distro from reading JedsDesk! And I thought I was the only one who read what I write! :D
That was pretty cool... I tried to find you on the IRC when I heard the news
