The acronym that seems most accurate to me is "PoOp," so that's seriously how I refer to it, in writing at least. I think I'm the only one who does that, though. =)

Back in college, it was referred to as the PoO. After the other postings about 
Amdahl v IBM, I have to laugh because the whole computer department in college 
was fiercely IBM oriented. And they felt that the IBM mainframe competitors 
were dishonest (theological problem with a church owned college).

I prefer Pop, but I too worked at Amdahl (Macrocode) and I went with the flow.

I’ve also worked for IBM. So it has been interesting.
