The Microsoft naming curse strikes again

The simple, geeky, and dare I say *perfect* name for the new windows command shell was MSH. Now they've decided to call it Windows PowerShell. Does Captain America come with it?

I've decided Microsoft marketing is incapable of doing anything cool. Isn't that their whole job? To make dorky stuff cool? Why is it the programmers and the techies making the cool names and products and marketing just dirties them up?

I am gonna agree with what many have already suggested to Microsoft... get rid of the people you hired to come up with this stuff and let the developers name it. *Cough*, Origami. *Cough*, Avalon.
