This is fascinating.  I immediately thought of my Unix/Linux instructor 
at Suffolk
County Community College--his name was Teng, and he came from just where
you'd expect, but apparently the MIT guys have even thought of that--if they
can find someone to read it some text in that accent!  (I wish we'd had that
capability!  The text book [Linux: The Textbook: Sarwar, et al] had 
about the
worst index I've ever seen.)
