Hi:

I am a bit younger probably (or got internet very late in my live) so
fido is fine for me. In any case I am more interested about
functionality than about a name.

I'm another dinosaur from the Fido Age, but I don't find fido-mode confusing at 
all. Amusing is more like it.

I also used BBS's and Fido (and RIME). But I wasn't thinking of them at all
forgot all about them when I made up the name.

I was thinking about the black-and-white cartoon guy from the 7up ad.

I'm also pretty sure there is some dog named Fido.
