OK, I saw in a post from decimal cat that illustrated how us human types can come up with names for our systems. Soooo.....
The question is, "How do you name your systems?"..
I for the most part use the names I've given to my dogs.
Cal - The faithful T-bird that genomes 24/7 and never complains.
Dorian - The one I'm always with another T-bird.
Mystic - A Dual celeron BP-6 that loves attention.
Max - The only computer ( and dog ) that seems to like my wife, its a Sony P-II 350.
Red - My Compaq P-120 laptop (who's battery indicator always seems to be red)

My system is called like me, Nofinger
but when i need to give it(with a new setup) a company name I always give it the name:
Crazy Horse, -Corp.,-Int.,-Sister or something like that.
I also give it this name when I make a clean install on someone else there computer.
So I always can see wich computer has been setup by me:D :D

I can honestly say that it never crossed my mind to name my computer. Guess my computer and I are just not that close.:(

I usually name mine after characters, items, and places from the King Arthur mythology/times.
