Kenneth,
This is mis-information. The "D" stands for Distribution not Design. The
Design thing came much later when a company called itself BSDI and added a
bit of ambiguity.
BTW, BTW sands for By The Way, RSN stands for Real Soon Now, NSA stands for
No Such Agency, and TLA stands for Three Letter Abbreviation.
thanks
chris

but not shared by everyone) :-)
