Pre-MacintoshPlus ROMs
Macintosh 128k ROMs had chip codes which began with the
letters L and H and so were therefore nicknamed "Lonely
Hearts" (or the other way around).
The later 32-bit-wide ROMs (for the 68020 and 68030 CPUs)
used the letters A, B, C, D ("Ala Baster Can Delabra").
These were the development names for the ROMs and in result
the name's initials were given to the ROM.
There's a unique series of L & H names. L is for Low.
H is for High. They are the two portions of the old 2-chip
ROM set. The acronyms are often used in many different
ways... Loenly Hearts and Lonely Heiffer are jus two of
them.
