Cactus: Extra bit about 'Why the Name?'

Att: Vincent Massol,

I thought I should let you know another fact about the word 'Cactus'.

In Australia it is a widely used phrase that refers to something that it not
functioning correctly. So the name 'Cactus' is a very appropriate name for a
testing tool.

Please refer to: http://www.koalanet.com.au/australian-slang.html#C

Cool Tool

Thanks,

Tim Stokes
