[OT] Pronouncing Nagios

[jeff vier]

I use them interchangeably, though I default to "fack".  Sometimes,
though, "eff-ay-cue" sounds better.  Like "I found /that/ fact in the
FAQ" would be ugly sounding as "fack"

I do know some people that like to say "fah-que".  Obviously, just to be
cute, but it grates my nerves.
