We have an Indian VP here at work named Anand, and he pronounces it: Ah-nund, with empasis on the "Ah".

Sooo... would that make it Ah-Nund-tech?

I dunno...

I pronounce it Ah-NON-Tech.

Since I have no one to talk to, I've never had to speak. So, I've never tried to say it. What kind of geeks are you?

At first glance I thought it was an-and-tech. But I quickly realized that it was based on a person's name. I personally pronounce Anand like this: a - naand. So I pronounce it a - naand - tech.

I heard "An-and" pronounce it as "uh-NON-d." :roll:

That's the "americanized" version of his name

Ah-nand-tech is the "correct" pronunciation in India

Who gives a crap how something is pronounced in India! If I wanted to hear Indian pronunciation I would call Dell's tech support.
