"Dithering Heights" was the name of the ColorSync team's lab at Apple in the 1990's.

Conference rooms and lab rooms often had amusing names — as I am sure is true at other companies besides Apple. "Rock" and "Hard Place" were two neighboring conference rooms.

Another floor as I recall had conference rooms named with oxymorons, "Military Intelligence", "Jumbo Shrimp" and — was it "Lawrence Expressway"? — something funny to Bay Area residents anyway.

On Lawrence Expressway, the carpool lanes are the rightmost lanes. It makes about as much sense as it sounds like.
