The origin of the name Sucaba - For various reasons I do this is to distinguish the difference between me (the name) and others who just thought it was a cool name. Write the name Sucaba on a piece of paper stand in a mirror and notice it spells ABACUS only backwards. This come from a moment in the book by Sidney Sheldon's book "I Take Manhattan". Sucaba was a computer so small you can carry it anywhere and yet so powerful it could out class all computers known to date (which also include the DOD). But it was scam of an idea to entrap some greedy, pompous Wall Streeters to invest in the prototype and be the first to market the newly aquired compter. Upon which a well packaged prototype of SUCABA was uncovered as scam only after standing in front of mirror to be ABACUS... and there you have it.
