How do you pronounce ASUS?

I talked with Asus tech support before, they pronounce it Ay-Suhs (Seuss, like Dr. Seuss). Too bad we don't all have phonemic characters to properly state these things...

HAHAHAHA i died laughing when i saw that crappy laptop with the word "ANUS" scratched on the screen. that's too funny.
 
according to answers.com,
ASUS (pronounced ['e?s?s], ['e?s?s], or [e?'su?s]). also, the name comes from Pegasus but they dropped the first 3 letters to get a higher alphabetical position. so just like pegasus just without the peg. SO A-Seuss.

My response:


I do not understand how you can deal with people like your client. This is very bad for our business, and as you know, my Anus laptops are top of the line and very expensive. I am not sure if you have my anus in your hands as of now, but I except you to send me another check THAT IS NOT FRAUD.


I know you will like my anus, many have before. Those are the newest anus on the block, and like I said, my anus is very very expensive, and only special customers were allowed to buy my anus.


I must add, those are a special version, my anus is black.


PLEASE I BEG OF YOU, SEND ME THE FUNDS FOR THE LAPTOPS, IT IS VERY IMPORTANT, I DO NOT WANT TO GET THE AUTHORITIES INVOLOVED!
