When C-Cube Microsystems was acquired by LSI Logic, we all got to keep our e-mail addresses. Early C-Cube employees had first/last name initials as addresses. I ended up with re@lsil.com, which is a pretty sweet e-mail address. Later, when Abhi Talwalker became CEO, all e-mail addresses were changed to firstname.lastname@lsil.com. My manager was pretty unhappy because his last name was Van Den Crommenacker.
