-ware words...

It's come to my attention that with this digital age, everyone tosses around words ending with the suffix -ware, such as software and hardware. SO why not make at least one more?

I propose the creation of sourceware (TM) (C)

What is sourceware? Sourceware is any software that is accompanied by, or can be obtained from the company's website, the source code for the program, with abosolutely no conditions attached, except of course for the liscence it is distributed under, such as GPL and LGPL.

What do you think? What are your favourite -ware words?

"Welcome to the Island of people who know too much."..."Did you really think balloons would stop him?!"
See what I'm listening too.

I always wear my underware.

Meh, I dont care if companies like it...they'll someday exapand to it, and when they do, I want 0.1 cent for everytime it is mentioned on the internet or for company-use.

So what about the company Ubi-soft? Would that translate to Ware-soft? Or would it be soft-ware?

All uses of terms referring to heavy machinery, advanced weaponry, military technologies, and/or combat vehicles will now be replaced with the use of the term Sargeware. ™©®

I likey I likey.

Fish --> I like your cornering of the pr0n market niche, which is really more like a market black-jole, rather than a niche.
