If you must mention it, refer to it as the euroHPe3000.com and savvy
management personnel will brush it away as a marketing gimmick with no real
value.

                just like it says all over your web page and theirs, HP is
the commonest
                name in use for Hewlett-Packard Company.
                Just be sure to NEVER mention the HP3000 or HPe3000, as
someone might
                discover what a great machine it is and I'd have even more
trouble buying
                one.
