It seems like the letter "X" is commonly linked with gaming.

Remember the X-Band, 32X, PSX, Megaman X, etc. For those of you whose memory serves, you'll remember that the Atari 5200 was originally called System X.
I'm not sure it stands for anything in particular, just one of those letters that companies love to add cos it makes their system sound hi-tech and modern!

So from now on, just call me........FinalCloud X!! lol Laughing
