I think that as Judd calls it Arch as in the thing McDonald's has two
golden ones, that should decide it.  ;)

For a native English speaker, it's the most natural pronunciation.  For
spakers whose first language is something else (German, perhaps) Ark
might be more natural, but <shrug>.

Of course, many people pronounce Gentoo with a g as in get, when it
should be a J sound, and many people pronounce the Li of Linux as
Lie-nux.

At any rate, it's livened up the list, but seeing all the posts reminds
me of this entry from the FreeBSD faq.

Harmony: How are you gonna kill her? Think! The second you even 
point that thing at her, you're gonna be all 'Aaagh!' (holding 
her hand to her head in imitation of Spike), and then you'll get 
bitch-slapped up and down Main Street, unless she's finally had 
enough and just stakes you! 
Spike: Sure, it'll hurt like hell for about two hours. But she'll
be dead just a little longer than that.
