How do you pronounce Kazaa and Gnutella?
For me:
Kazaa = Kuh - Zaa, with emphasis on the Zaa
Gnutella = New - Tell - Uh
Do I have it right or not? My friend calls it Kah Zuh, with emphasis on Kah.
And I haven't heard any say Gnutella for a long time, but I was looking at the zeropaid archived web page and it had it has
Nut Ell Uhh

According to the Wikipedia:
http://www.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gnutella
"Gnutella (pronounced with no 'g') is a distributed software project..."
As far as I know, the name Gnutella is a play on words resulting from the combination of GNU stemming from the gnu project http://www.gnu.org/ and Nutella, a hazelnut spread http://www.nutellausa.com/.
Interestingly, GNU, as explained on the gnu.org website, is pronounced as "guh-NEW".
It looks like there is some variance on pronunciaton.
As for myself, I pronounce it with an audible "g".

I always figured that was how you pronounced your name. It is really the only one that makes since and it isn't that hard to figure out.
Psi is kinda like Psy
and laxs is a no brainer except for the x and s is redundant.

Cool name and funny interpertations. LMAO!
Personally, I'm not fond of anything that ends in AHZAH. When I hear it, it rings in my head like fire from hell.

REDUNDANT?? HOW DARE YOU!! LOL
Redundant? perhaps, but it looks more complete with the "S" at the end of it
