Default How to spell the ?-Tron line from Shunyata?

Hey there,

Dumb question, maybe, but I cannot figure out what is the correct spelling for the new Z-Tron series from Shunyata. Is it ZTron, Z-Tron, ZiTron, Zi-Tron, XiTron, Xi-Tron? There are many spelling from one reseller to another so I would like to just call them by their name.

Thanks,

Serge

ΞTRON

But it is difficult on most keyboards to type the Greek (&Xi character. Pronounced: xi or zy or zi depending upon your native language. Therefore you see many alternative variations.

Default How to input Ξ in a forum message

To create the Greek capital letter XI, type the characters below, but omit the space between each:

& # 9 2 6 ;

Without spaces this yields:

Ξ

This should work universally as long as your browser is using a font capable of displaying the character. As always YMMV.

Try it!

Ξ
ΞTron
Now, having googled the matter without a satisfactory result, could someone remind me what ΞTron means?

This sounds like a cable that should be promoted by the Artist Formally Known as Prince

Bud,
Alternatively, you can cut and paste "Ξ", like I just did!
Best,
