Hi All,
I've just been watching the TLC show about Hackers and Phone Freakers.
I don't work in the computer industry, so I don't hear many pronunciations.
Do you pronounce DEC as "Dee Eee Cee" or as "deck"? I've always
called
it "deck".
I've never heard anything but "deck". Of course, I live in Texas,
where proper English is a counter-survival trait.
