Take into account they were named more for their function (for a small,
niche market). AF cards didn't need buzzworthy marketing names. When I
worked at a large State of Kansas operated MR facility, we would refer to
them as brand "x" card, brand "y" card, etc. The software was for the most
part similar, just minor changes here and there - unless the user was on a
proprietary package that required card "x", then it was hassle.
