Well, I don't name mine just because it's cool; I name it usually
to help with networking; remembering ISSVENGEANCE is much
easier than say.....DEFAULT-W4E5LCX when getting a network to
work.

I really don't have a name for my computers, but whenever they're not running the way I want them to, they become known as "Fucking Piece of Shit".

My computer at home is named Lloth. :) Mainly because on her case, there is a black spider, where you can set up lights and fans. And she's very bitchy at times and demanding of me.
