Worst names in Tech Products

What's with calling PCs "PCs" if they're not personal. I go to the library, they have PCs for everyone to use. What's up with that?

 

What's with all the consumer grade electronics with the "Pro" tag at the end? You have all those "Pro" SSDs.

 

Same with any gaming labeled ram.

I can't believe that nobody mentioned JIZZ keyboards yet.

Personally im 50/50 on the name though. It's awesome.. and

"Could you bring your corsair keyboard over? I'd like to try it out"

-"Noope.. I'll bring my JIZZ" *ends call*

Most phone names are pretty stupid and so are AMD GPU names.

There CPU names make a lote more sense as Intel's though:

8-amount of cores

3-generation: in this case the third, which is vishera

2-clockspeed

0-this one just makes the number look bigger.

 

Now let's take a look at Intel's:

i5-rough performance or something

4-this one makes sense, generation

6-clockspeeds and cache and who knows what more

7-also clockspeed

0-also to make the number look bigger, sometimes also clockspeed

K-from kunlocked or something

"Dude which phone should I buy?" 

 

"Get that one m8"

 

"Which one?"

I think you accedentally put M8 there as there is only one One M8 the old One was the M7 or even older One X

Wii U, I don't get the U part

Xbox 360 as opposed to xbox one, it doesn't make sense, unless they meant that the xbox one is supposed to be 'THE one', which makes even less sense

Samsung tablets

Some of the razer stuff like 'Razer Electra'

Noctua's

Well Back in 1975 it was Micro-Soft, which stood for Microprocessing Software

Nokia Lumia. I kind of wish they would just die already. They had the chance to be awesome and jump on the Android bandwagon, but... they got in bed with microsoft...

MacBook Pro. Seriously. It was called the PowerBook before they went Intel and that was a much better name. Same goes for the Macbook. That used to be the iBook. And the Mac Pro used to be the Power Mac. All better than they are now.

Didn't they use that name (Also PowerPC) because they used a PowerPC CPU?

Qualcomm's Killer networking. It's terrible and the only thing it's killing is its own brand.

Because its one of the most poor brand name companies out there with motorized toys. By far in my book, the worst tech name ever.

Check out their site:

http://www.erector.us/

 

Note: No, I can assure you this isn't a porn site. Its 100% completely safe.

 

Edit: I'll elucidate "motorized toys" because I got PMs asking if I meant vibrators...... 

By motorized toys, I meant toy cars for little kids. LOL
