micros~1


    An abbreviation of the full name Microsoft resembling the rather bogus
    way Windows 9x's VFAT filesystem truncates long file names to fit in the
    MS-DOS 8+3 scheme (the real filename is stored elsewhere). If other files
    start with the same prefix, they'll be called micros~2 and so on, causing
    lots of problems with backups and other routine system-administration
    problems. During the US Antitrust trial against Microsoft the names
    Micros~1 and Micros~2 were suggested for the two companies that would exist
    after a break-up.
