With all of these pronunciation threads...I'm guess that a lot of the members need a little help with their english :laugh: just kidding, but seriously, I think we've have enough of these polls for at least another two years!

well his name is li-nus (as in line), but I've always thought lin-ux was cooler/more correct

Actually in the audio clip he pronounces his name more 'lean-oos'.

I prounounce it Option 2, with a little Aussie slant in that it's more 'icks' and 'ux'. Just laziness tho - probably wouldn't say it like that to anyone who knows more than me on the subject (not bragging - I don't meet many of those - unfortunately).

I think it's because all of these terms are originally written, not spoken - unlike most language.
