    Valley Industrial Assocation I think.
    http://www.via.org/ seens similar in logo, could just be coincidence.

    lol maybe you are referring to the .dat extension? If so its just short for data according to spiffy computer book. Kinda like .bmp being bitmap files :p

    ASDA = Associated Dairies
    TESCO is an amalgamation of the two names T E Stockwell and Sir Jack COhen.
    B&Q also initials of founders.

    The thing is, that I currently work for DHL Airways and we get tons of parcels here, with the name VIA on them and then underneath these three letters the line "Very Innovative Architecture". But I can't decifer if it actually belongs to VIA Tech. as there is no actual logo on the parcels and I can never get a hold of one of them to see the origin, as they're always in customs transition and therefor off hands...

    Cheers

    Fred
