As far as I've heard....

when you have MacinTalk pronounce Bo3b, it comes out something
like Booooob (as in: 'I need you here, right away')

Kind of a desperate cry for that person. Seems like he was very
well know for all the people in the Apple building crying out for
him when they needed something.

But I could be mistaken...
