Dock Scrabble!

Scratch & Sniff Committee
I just looked down into my Dock this morning, and noticed the word "NeO". See the attached screenshot.

I don't have office, but I'm pretty sure M$'s hard-working interface team use a single letter to denote their products - what could be more intuitive than a W for a word-processor and an X for a spreadsheet? (sarc)
I'm pretty sure there are a lot of other unimaginative people out there using single letters to denote an application, which really doesn't help new users.

So, for a challenge, why don't you see what you can make from the letters in your dock, and post your word here?
I'll grant Explorer, Netscape and M$ Word only one point, all other icons are worth 3 points each. Lets see how we do ...

(I really need a U, otherwise the Quicktime Q is useless) :p

E - Internet Explorer
A - Appleworks
don't know where to find D.

That makes it 5 points for me and 8 for test user. Did the H come from Hotline?
 
Hmmm symphonix....you know that "the matrix" was filmed in australia....maybe this is all a dream ---- or is it ?! ;)
 
H is from Hogwasher (nobody said it couldn't be a classic app)
note the newspaper style surroundings.

i also found a word in which you can use your Q without a U

qintar- see

i still want to find that D and spell Bonehead!!

Practically everything thats good is filmed in Australia or New Zealand. Matrix, Moulin Rouge, Lord of the Rings, M.I.2., Lantana. Lately they've been filming "Queen of the Damned" - the sequel to Interview with the Vampire - not far from where I live in Melbourne. It is the perfect setting there: very Gothic and yet very chic. A little too sunny for vampires, though.
But then, I'm biased.:D
 
Solrac was the first person I know of to start spelling things in the dock. You can find the original thread HERE .

To spice up this thread a little bit, here is the pic:

This is way off topic here, but i'm going to have to say that MI2 was pretty bad. It wasn't even comprable to any 007 film. Any any time there was a plot problem, they simply had a character rip off their face.

The original was good, but MI2 just tried to rehash the harness scene from the original.

For a good spy movie, try "Ronin", now thats a cool movie.

Oh yeah Adobe Acrobat could be used as an A, if you need another one.
 
I liked MI 1 more than MI2 because I had to see it a few times in order to fully understand what was going on :p
