Based on the less than inspired title of said product, keep in mind one gets 
what one pays for! In all honesty, no professional would use such a tacky 
title for his program. Amusing, perhaps, professional? Nope.

It may be a fantastic product, if so, then give it a name that compliments 
it, not makes it into a snicker and ignored because the name would not be 
used on a good product.
