'HMP' (Hybrid Multi Processing)

I vote for 'HMP' so that we can always be confused over whether we're talking about the DragonFly processor model or Hiten M. Pandya. :)

Dunno ... bad enough the surname *I* carry .


So that really is your name?

For 400+ years of specific marriage and birth records....



Of course, it's not an unheard-of surname... there was a British minister (later prime minister) on TV in the 1980s. Still, seemed strange on this list.

AFAIK, that was a fictional character.


A direct ancestor had a rather more lasting 'real world'
relationship with HM government.

Check the last words spoken by Charles I of England.
