Ha! All my computers are named after dead dogs. In fact the network
name is DEADDOGS. I guess it's my way of memorializing personal
friends. After reading some of these posts I'm no longer worried that
I'm crazier than most...

Heck, both my home PC and office PC are named "Pentax" ;).
My Linux server is called "smurf". That's because I painted its
front panel dark blue several years ago (the rest is black). It
looks a bit nicer than the original beige.
The Mac is called "garfield" to keep with the big-cat theme. When I
was a kid I spent my lawn mowing money on Garfield books. I still
have them today but I no longer get paid for mowing the lawn.
My h/w development machine (also Linux) is called "mayhem" after
Project Mayhem from the movie Fight Club.
There are more but you get the idea - I don't have any kind of
consistent naming scheme. I'm planning to buy a Powerbook soon... I
was going to keep with the Garfield theme and call it Nermal but
thought it'd be too girly. I might call it 'scratch' instead as
that'd be a good cat name.
Cheers,
