Is it just me or did Microsoft try to be funny when name Office X. Does anyone hear 'Office Sex'? Seems the creative team that came up with that had to know what they were doing.
Take for instance the phrases:
I have Office X, it's great.
Julie has Office X on her computer.
We love the enhancements Office X provides.

Apple tried a similar scheme with OSX for the Canadian market.
"Oh, eh, sex?" has become the hottest pickup line in Internet cafes throughout our frozen neighbor to the north.
