Worst Name for A Piece of Equipment

There is a CD player with a good reputation that goes by the name fog. I don't think any audiophile would want a CD player to sound foggy. What other names do you know which are a contradiction in terms or are simply unpleasant sounding.

Apple's new iPod Hi-Fi. Oxymoron.

Don't get me wrong. I love my iPod (with Koss PortaPros). And the Hi-Fi is probably decent for what it is. But, it's akin to equating an SUV with a sports car. What do you say we exile all the ad copy writers to a barren island?
