SCSI n. [Small Computer System Interface] A bus-independent standard for system-level interfacing between a computer and intelligent devices. Typically annotated in literature with sexy ( /seksee/ ), sissy ( /sisee/ ), and scuzzy ( /skuhzee/ ) as pronunciation guides the last being the overwhelmingly predominant form, much to the dismay of the designers and their marketing people. One can usually assume that a person who pronounces it /S-C-S-I/ is clueless.
