Okay, genius, for those of who have never attended an av
conference, please tell us...

Is it MAC-a-fee or ma-KAFF-ee?

And what about "Zvi Netiv"? Is it ze-VEE, ZEH-vee, or something
else, entirely? (Hey Zvi, you can answer this, too, lol!)

(Really! Who cares?! As long as you buy their programs,
right?!)

P.S. And what about <snicker> "4Q"? Is it four-KYOO,
FORKED-yoo or ****-YOU? :-D

P.P.S. Fwiw, it's "fred-er-icks". ;-)

calm down sweetie. Kaspersky is straight forward, in that I can't see any
other way of pronouncing it.

I've always pronounced it as Mc-aff-ee.
And what about "Zvi Netiv"? Is it ze-VEE, ZEH-vee, or something

"The following post was typed in dripping sarcasm font. Turn on
HTML to view." Guess I was wrong.)

From the horse's mouth (John himself), it's pronounced McAfee. ;-)

It's pronounced tsvee. Germans would pronounce Zvi correctly.

Cheers, Zvi

I wish I knew. :-)

I've heard sales reps call it Kas-Perskee, Ka-Perskee, and Kasp-Erskee. I
tend to call it Kas-Per-Sky. They should just change it to K-Labs.
