.pro - isn't that like putting Dr. on your business card?

I think Harpless is right on the money.

.pro has a nice ring to it, but at the same time it's redolent of those sad individuals that bother putting Dr. on their business card just because they had enough time, money and patience to sit through a Phd doctorate.

Cheesy business card fodder at best. Get over it.

I wonder, who needs .asia domain? I cannot imagine, what would be useful for Microsoft.asia? Toyota.asia? Then let's register .europe (if .eu is too short). Or perhaps Microsoft.southamerica, Dell.australiaandnewzealand, Coca-Cola.africa... Sound funny? Then why not just use the global and country domains? Or perhaps it is time to drop the domains at all?
