Comment Not CUDA but Cuda! (Score 1) 152
Dear /.ers,
Like undoubtedly many anal retentive, abbreviation savvy others have done before me, I searched like a devil to find the meaning of what I then thought to be an acronym: CUDA. However, no such definition was to be found, and this is very rare.
On further inspection, I also found that Apple _consistently_ referred to the controller chip as Cuda, not CUDA, further strengthening someone else's theory that this is indeed a code name/nickname of some sort and not a pronounceable initialism (a.k.a. acronym).
So, fellow slashers, from now on, please be accurate and consistent (and above all respectful to future abbreviation savvy loonies) and _do_not_ capitalize all the letters in Cuda!
PMU, is of course another story. It is an initialism, though not an acronym, for Power Management Unit.
