But Connectiva was not French, so trying to pronounce it's new name with a
french accent makes no sense. Since the new company's biggest market is
still Brazil, you should try to pronounce it with a pt_BR accent. Think of
it as rhyming with "llama!".
Some guy with big puffy sleeves and tight pants dancing with a deeply tanned
Carioca sporting a nice pair of maracas and clad in nothing but feathers, and
a penguin eating cheese. Mandriva!
