What's your PC(s) called?

Blighter · 03-12-2008, 01:35

I hate using PCs, but love my laptop

It's called NORTHFACE as it's all I could think of at the time.

Previous names include

Computer
aBlighternator
****ingJewPonse (<-- my old test PC)
Britney (<-- that PC ALWAYS had viruses)

How about you?

Mine have crap names

JenLaptop
UpstairsPC
DownstairsPC

My main PC used to be Haly but is now my Mum's thus named UpstairsPC. Never really named PCs anything fancy.

Mine is called 'Rich' and the one downstairs is called 'Downstairs'

Up until now, I've always named mine after characters from the Simpsons but it gets a bit confusing. Whenever I look on the network, I have to try to remember which one is which (i.e. Quimby is gaming rig, Bart is download machine etc.). I'm going to redo them all in the near future and give them boring names which actually reflect which function they serve (i.e. Games, Downloads, Media etc.).

Mine are fairly descriptive

Server: Nutserv

Even my amp has a name! Denon-amp (I didn't choose it tho)

My PCs were always named after what they were, XP-2700, XP-3000 etc but the last PC I built was such a beast that I called it Bohemoth.

The current box sitting under my desk is just called Feek's Mac Pro which was the default.
