[ILUG] [even more - OT] Smart Telecom

Stephen Reilly stephen at hkc.ie

Has any one noticed how any product or piece of software which is
prefixed by the word "smart" is inheritantly stupid? It's has become a
trend that sticking the word smart into your product name means your
aiming your product at a dumb end user and therefore cramming lots of
worthless end user aesthetics into it. Thereby rendering it "user
friendly", or crap in other words... Having said that I haven't looked
into this particular deal in any great depth so treat the preceeding
comments as general smart-comments.

Regards,
Stephen
