Is it just me, or do machine designers appear to internally name things
stupidly all the time.

Look at these

Blackbelt - The SOA version of Dreamcast
Katana - The SOJ version of Dreamcast
Dreamcast - See Above

Dolphin - New Nintendo machine project name
Gekko - The PowerPC based chip

What next??
The Sega "Brick"<g>
The Sony "Whiteboard"
The Nintendo "Catch-22"

To emulate the pros I think I'll call me next project......

"Project Teapot".  Yep that'll do.... erm... Oh I know maybe "Project
Ferret"......
