Having lived very near to Elland Road Footbal Ground I can honestly say that is a matter of opinion.

It would have been more accurate to say when the Asahi Optical Co started. The first time they made something called a Pentax was around 1957 and it of course refers to the first mass market SLR with a fixed pentaprism viewfinder. (I know Contax got there first).

Isn't that where they got the name Pentax from? Combining pentaprism and Contax?

The name Pentax came from Zeiss-Ikon Dresden circa 1957 see the bottom of this page.

It's not about what kit I've got, its about having the knowledge to use it to maximum potential.
