    well “saata” is closer to the pronounciation of satan in finnish, “saatana”. Was it Linus you’ve heard?

      Ha. No, I don’t think it was Linus, but it might have been someone else European. Really hard to be sure at this point. SATA has been around for a while.

      And I’ve unearthed a memory of the other, other pronunciation that I know I’ve heard: “serial ay-tee-ay”. Why make it an acronym when you can say one of the words and then the initials of the others!
