You hear it all the time in movies or on TV, most often as a cliche,
"(so-and-so) doesn't know the meaning of surrender. Another version
goes, "failure" is not in (so-and-so's) vocabulary. But think for a
minute, really think, what if the word "error" did not exist in the
English or any language, how might a thinker with a bit of imagination
and intellect, or perhaps ingenuity, seize those five little letters
dreaded by end-users and use them to innovate or create anew in the
realm between personage and machine?

Our products do not have errors, because we don't
use that word. We use the phrase, "unwanted features."

I always liked "A Call for growth" the best. Close second "that's a
hardware (or software) problem, sorry can't help you"
