Where did the name heatware come from?

We all have it and we all use it, but where did the actual name come from?

i dont use it and i dont know what it is.....all i know is something about your hardware specs?

 

The man who created it.

 

[vi edit]

heat_23 was one of original programmers of it.

 

[gtsukada]

is that his actual name? or just some random thing he thought of. i know he goes by heat, but i doubt his real name is heat.

 

Send him a hot cyber email.

I remember around that time was mentioned because people get HOT under the Collar when they don't get what they were expecting and these are mainly hardware purchases therefore "Heatware" was born.
