Just curious, how do you pronounce OS X?
Thursday, June 19, 2003 by paxx | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk
I always assumed it was pronounced "O.S. ten", but today I heard a girl call it "O.S. Ex". I started laughing repeating "O.S. Sex"? The she tells me "Yeah, that's the way it'S said in English", being French I really could not argue much with her cause I must admit I haven't heard it very often said aloud in English (maybe a few times on TEch TV, but I'm pretty sure they call it "O.S. Ten". Anyway, I have serious doubts that she is right.
So, is it "O.S. ten" or "O.S. Ex" (OS Sex)?

X = Roman numeral 10
P = Atomic number 15

Windows 10-15 sounds like a passage from the Bill Gates Holy Bible.

no, it actually means that it promises to finish booting up by 10:15.
