I name my computers/PDAs after Greek gods/mythical figures.

My 1910 was named Hermes - the messenger of the gods, appropriate due to mobility and such.

My 4150 is called Achilles. Well, I thought of the soft-reset hole as being the "Achilles heel" of the device. I just liked the character in the Illiad somewhat as well.

My system at home is called well, Zeus - since it's the master of all.

Next PDA will likely be Odysseus.

My PDA is Wigglet
My PC is Wiggy, my laptop is Wiggo, and my server was Wigrig before its hard drive imploded upon itself. (See a pattern?)

I'm not sure what I'll name my next PDA... it will only be Wigglet 2 if it's a new HP, which is unsure right now.

For my computers at work I use a Blake's 7 (British sci-fi show 1978-1981) theme. Mainly the names of the evil characters at the moment. I mean, how could a B7 fan RESIST calling the server Servalan (Serve-a-LAN... get it?) It's SO perfect.

Yes, I am easily entertained.

I also have Travis, and my laptop is, of course, Orac.

Sniff so many childhood memories flooding back. Great use of Servalan you never want to mess with her she was so scary.

I'll stop now. I think I know the whole script. We're knights of the round table.

Right this is silly very silly indeed and a bit suspect I think

Fools! Worried about the name of a PDA....
Instead, worry about this!!




What... is your name?




What... is your quest?




What is the airspeed velocity of a fully laden sparrow?

Given my PDA is about a week old, it currently is called "Toy" and very soon shall be called " my organised life".

The desktop is called CAT-PISS. .... My friend who built this desktop was making a comment on the fate of the previous desktop.. *sigh*

when i got my first desktop computer years ago, i gave him the name Ali.
then years have past, changed a couple of computers, and still the name is Ali. Last year when i got my ipaq 2215 i found a good name for it: AliCE ! what a clever idea, after that i gave the name AliM to my mobile phone.
the M in AliM stands for mobile
