Fuller version is that the later Mitel founders worked for another 
telecoms (Bell??) company when they left, they were restrained from 
setting up in the same business area for a couple of years so they setup 
a business selling lawnmowers until the restraint period expired. Then 
the name of their telecoms startup, (MITEL) was derived from the name of 
their interim lawnmower business.
