Historical temperaments.... unequal temperaments.

I tune 'em, but hardly ever use those words to describe them.  Why?  Both 
carry negative connotations.  Historical= old, crusty.
(un)equal= not good enough to be what's the norm, only descriptive to what 
it's NOT.

So, on my invoice, and my cards, there is this line:

Digitally optimized tunings

(all together now)
Ooooooooooo Aaaaaaaaaaa

Modern, customized, technology, positive.

So you tell me, what's your translation for a digitally optimized tuning?

Most origional response gets a digitally signed optimized copy of a 
graphical representation of an altered historical tuning. (whew!)
