In Italian it's called 'espresso'. I do not care for any Americanisations of the word. NO X.
Note however that both words are loan words, espresso being Italian, and expresso being Spanish, so some argue that either variant spelling is acceptable.....
not to mention, it doesnt matter, its correct either way, regardless of what you think. it depends where you live

Espresso is an Italian invention, so only the Italian spelling is valid (imho).

Well, searching in Google Images for "Expresso Menus" brings up images of menus with the spelling Espresso without the X

True, but a lot of people know who I am on Neowin, So I just used the name to advertise the thread and make people want to click it.
