..and SrvrPowerCtrl will be marketed as -"Serving the SqueezeBoxServer
server community since 2008."-

Maybe we should get our developer-speak nomenclature down first...and
leave divining the minds of the consumers to the marketing folks for the
time being.

Like Phill, I don't know if anyone ever referred to slimserver as
"SS"...with all those negative connotations.  But certainly I've
referred to squeezecenter as "SC" many times and refer to SqueezeNetwork
as "SN".

On the other hand, actual bits of hardware in this community tend to go
by TLAs -- three-letter-acronyms..e.g. "SB3", "SBC", "SBR". 
(Hummm...what's the TLA for a Transporter?  "TRN"?  "TPR"?)

So...wouldn't it be consistent if in our developer-speak we refer to
hardware by three-letter-acronyms and software by two?

"SBS" will thus be reserved for a future hardware product, the
"SqueezeBox Sense-O-Rama" which will feature a telekinesis-controlled
UI.

..and our two letter acronym for SqueezeBoxServer -- the service?

Ugh.  Now we're right back to "SS".
