I don't know...

I don't know about this BETA business-- it make me think of BETAMAX which if you don't remember was the video format that became completely OBSOLETE! It's also a greek letter, the second one of the alphabet, which makes you wonder, why do they call it BETA? I mean, if it's better, why not call it ALPHA? Isn't it implied that alpha is BETTER than beta? Or if they're going the OTHER direction, why not OMEGA. IT doesn't give me a whole lot of confidence calling something beta, let me tell you. The next thing you know they'll want to change it to... what's next? Gamma or something? I don't know my greek alphabet. What's the "C" in the greek alphabet, goddamnit?!?
