Happy Easter All,

Almost all of my Linux interactions takes place digitally; hence, the pronunciations of common *nix words may not be accurate in my mind. This theory is often reinforced by the differing pronunciations I encounter when verbally discussing Linux. I am curious how ya'll pronounce these *Lenn Nicks* related words:

Debian:
=======
D.B.E.N.?
Deb E. N.?

Suse:
=====
Sue Say?
Suess?
Susy?

Knoppix:
========
Nopp X?
Knopp X?

MySQL:
======
my sequel?
my S.Q.L.?

Gentoo:
=======
jen two?

Windows:
========
win blows?
win doze?
;)

Gnome:
======
Nome?

Ubuntu:
=======
You Bunt You?
You Bunt too?
uh bunt you?
uh bunt too?
You boon too?
uh boon too?

Cygwin:
=======
Sigh Jwin?
Sigh Gwenn?

apropos:
========
A propose?
App pro poss?

Mepis:
======
Me piss?
Meh piss?
Me piece?
Meh piece?

.... More to come, I'm sure....
