True.  Now I'll add my Adobe-related pet peeve.  I call it Acrobat 
Reader still, since that was the original name.  Adobe has renamed it 
"Adobe Reader", but that's just not accurate.  Acrobat Reader does not 
read _all_ Adobe product files.  It only reads PDF files - no more, no 
less.  It should therefore not be called Adobe Reader, it should be 
Acrobat Reader.  Couple this with the fact that it does not read Acrobat 
files, but PDF files, and I can see a parallel... it's like calling 
FrontPage the Internet...

/me steps down from his soapbox and sits down.
