I have to say Metro was one of the coolest names they picked and Bing is by far the worst.
For being one syllable, Bing sure is a physically difficult word to pronounce. You have to do weird things with your mouth. Also it means nothing. It has no meaning
> I don't know if it's true, but I was told once that bing means disease in Mandarin.
Sort of but not really. It depends on the intonation and even with the right intonation (bing4 / bìng), the sound maps to several other possible words aside from "disease".
