We never knew which ones 'management' liked. But we beta-testers made
several recommendations, none of which were available, we were told. My own
favorite was "Attaché". Alpaca was just a code name for the beta - it also
wasn't available, BTW. Just about anything you could think of was already
trademarked by someone. We were all disappointed with the eventual name. But
who cares now?
