Yes, it is pronounced "toom" - the "b" is silent and the "o" is long. It's kind of along the same lines that we pronounce through "thru" and the "ough" sounds silent...

I pronounce it "toom", but English is a very widespread language, you know, and other people might have other ideas.

Yes, it's pronounced TUME or TOOM ... rhymes with TUNE with an M instead of an N.
