monty
/mon'tee/, n.
1. [US Geological Survey] A program with a ludicrously complex user
interface written to perform extremely trivial tasks. An example would be a
menu-driven, button clicking, pulldown, pop-up windows program for listing
directories. The original monty was an infamous weather-reporting program,
Monty the Amazing Weather Man, written at the USGS. Monty had a
widget-packed X-window interface with over 200 buttons; and all monty
actually did was files off the network.
2. [Great Britain; commonly capitalized as Monty or as the Full Monty] 16
megabytes of memory, when fitted to an IBM-PC or compatible. A standard
PC-compatible using the AT- or ISA-bus with a normal BIOS cannot access
more than 16 megabytes of RAM. Generally used of a PC, Unix workstation,
etc. to mean fully populated with memory, disk-space or some other
desirable resource. See the World Wide Words article ?The Full Monty? for
discussion of the rather complex etymology that may lie behind this phrase.
