I don't know about you, but when I read "POS" in this context, I had to think twice to realize that it probably stands for "Point Of Sale" in this case.

I'm the reverse - I've always known about it as Point Of Sale from the early 90s when a friend worked in electronic retail, programming cash tills. I couldn't understand what people meant when seeing that acronym years later on IRC.
(For a long time I also wondered why so many people on Youtube talked about the Object Management Group... until I began watching some American TV)

From my experience in Point of Sale systems, I find the clash of acronyms appropriate.

What else would it stand for? I only know it as Point of Sale

My initial expansion of it was No. 1.1. or 3.1. from the urbandictionary.com link above …
