Sumvision KPAC MP4 Player

by

kpac.jpgKPAC? KPAC’s got to be someone’s nickname, hasn’t it? It reads like a J-Lo kind of a nickname - first initial and then the start of your surname. So who’s nickname is it?

My guess is that it’s Kerry Packer’s. Kerry Packer was an Australian media tycoon, most famous in my world for being the guy who brought about World Series Cricket.

Kerry Packer wanted the exclusive rights to Australian cricket, but he couldn’t get them, so he hit upon the ingenious solution of inventing a rival form of international cricket. KPAC threw a load of money at all the top cricketers. Quite a bit of it stuck and those players came and played World Series Cricket on his TV channel.

Now KPAC’s given his name to a portable media player, which seems strangely fitting, although I’m not quite sure why.
