Then what about this? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intranet
Well, I don't mean that the word literally does not exist (otherwise,
what would I have to complain about huh :-), but that it should never
have been invented. The page you refer to perfectly describes "an
internet", after all.
I really wanted to find an authoritative reference, since I'm pretty
sure one exists, but I haven't been able to find it yet among the
documents where I suspect it to be, and I'm not going to make it
into a
day job :-). Wikipedia's Catenet entry however seems to have the
same or
a similar source.

The purpose of the word "intranet" should be obvious: It permits the
relevant distinction to be made readily in speech, where capital
letters are useless.
Best,
Tim
