Is that being Beovision Avant Garde?

I was waiting for that.

Perhaps we need a new drink, or at least a new Toast: Beogoodcheer

Hello? Anyone? Is this thing on?

I've heard the brand name mispronounced as "Bang and Awfulson". Do they know something we don't?

From time to time I've heard the brand referred to as Bang & Awfulson. Freudian slip that is relevant sometimes

I do not wish to hi-jack the thread...but let me roll back over something here. Dude1's liberties with the nomenclature can be, and have been, seen as amusing, annoying, even innovative. But I answer the phone at work a lot, and there are enough B&O owners out there (and I expect here) who aren't even certain what the name of the product they own is...and I can state firmly that when they tell me they are having trouble with a "Beo 4" that they bought, they are just as likely to mean a BeoVision 4 or a BeoSound 4 as they are the remote control (and don't get me started on BeoLab 4's). So one may be artistic, even Avant Garde if that is the intent...but don't expect everyone to 'get it'...and don't be surprised at confusion when it crops up.

Rant over...back on topic.

Anyone here on Xbox Live can send a friend request to BeoBoy.... No, I wasn't brave enough to put that on the license plate on my car...that's B&O Guy.

Actually, I think Bangsung pretty much sums it up right now.

Perhaps you are expressing too much BeoCriticism?

Or am I being BeoFooled?

Not wanting to mix my Beoterms and Beoposters up, but I was always fond of Dude1's 'Bangvision' and 'Bangsound' :)

Actually, I think Bangsung pretty much sums it up right now.
