The Nova story is just an urban legend, and has been debunked for some time now. According to the legend, "Nova" means "Doesn't go" in Spanish, hence in Mexico and Latin America it sold poorly. Problem is, the model sold pretty well throughout the region, and this is just a fabricated story of how the mighty can be humiliated by silly mistakes.
