My computer... *gasp*.... needs .... *rattle-y exhale*... a new.... *rasp*... name...

I find my computer in need of a name. Any suggestions?

Naturally I thought of Marvin or Eddie, but that's just asking for trouble. Why do nice, normal, well-adjusted computers in books I've read never have names?

Mine is sirius, after the star. My desktop is orion. Choose a theme you're ioto and name from there. OUr department's computers are all named after solar system bodies. I've got Oberon.

Hey cool, I named my computer Orion too! I thought that it looked like a star when I put it to sleep and Orion is my favorite constallation.

Cool indeed!

On the other hand, "Anaxagoras" is a bit long. Still...

Yeah, definately my favourite constellation too. Oberon is very cool to have too - I was just saying in passing that I'd love, say, Oberon, because it has a cool name, and the next week the techie guy said, "you're getting a new machin, it's Oberon"!
