Ironically, one of the colleges that I taught at was "Vista College". while Windows Vista was still "in bloom", they went about changing the name of the college to "Berkeley City College", in spite of my pleas to keep the name "Vista" for a while longer, at least in parallel, to cash in on "Learn Wndows Vista at Vista college".

Perhaps they could have simply called it "Windows Vista College." They could hand out diplomas that if you remodel your house too noticeably, they become invalid and you're forced to be an undergraduate until you call in to get a new one. Great at parties.
One of my proposals was to call the building that we were in, "Berkeley city College, Vista Campus", which would let people include or not include "Vista" as needed.
