Every Name for IBM You Could Ever Imagine
Aha! I found the column that had all those names for IBM!

In PC Magazine I announced the winner of the competition: Imensa Bola de Manteca (big ball of lard).

    Thanks . … Will go ahead & send it to my assoc @ IBM. … :))

    How about the two-parter on Hunters that was published in Microtimes? Think the source of your writing came from the UCB Professor who teaches Urban Folklore.

    Here’s an even better (corrected) version:
    ————————————————————————–
    Inmensa Bola de Manteca (humongous ball of lard)
    ————————————————————————–
    note:
    1. missing “n” added
    2. changed “big” to “humongous”, alternatives “huge” or “immense”
    😉

    I’ve been moved
