Gimp?!? I have been instructed to install software named Gimp. How very, very odd. I wonder what the marketing/programmers were thinking when they named the software. Come to think of it, I wonder what most programmers/marketing people think of when they are naming new products. ‘What’s catchy? What are we trying to sell? Sex. No, that’s not it. But it works. Hmm? Think, think, think. Eureka! I’ve got it. Gimp!’
