yeah I have several computers in the house and it would be hard to network them without a name.
 
Yes, right now I am working on Ullasa. Earlier today I was on Manjugosha and Ekarati. My husband's is named HAL9000.
 
No.

Nice names. 🙂
 
my biggest hard drive used to be in Amber. But she's getting old, so now I stick it in Rita. Only thing I don't like about her is she's loud when I turn her on.
 
For networking purposes, my computer is called DarkPath. It's also the name of my Dungeons and Dragons group. Other computers in my LAN are BlueMidget and WhiteShark
 
Heh...when I was making the rig page, I put Ronin Reactor...but I never call it that.

Mine has a bunch of car stickers on it...the most prominent being the vertical "silvia" (after the Nissan that we know as the 240SX...which is NOT a REAL Silvia.) one...so Silvia might sound nice...but I just call it a "computer."
 
I name my computers after Simpsons characters. The main one that I'm using right now is Homer. I love Homer and Homer loves me. 😀

To answer your question, yes its normal granted he's got 110% geek factor.

I prefer to be called a geekette

btw, I am fixing up an old 286 and thinking of calling him Jerboi 😉 😀

Piece of **** >>



So called "bad word" by mom and pop in our child hood and "inappropriate language" by our Jr. High teachers and AnandTech Moderators.

Yes, I name computers and cars. It has nothing to do with network identity. It has to do with the fact that I place a lot of trust in my machines, and I like to feel that I can rely on them (even if the relationship is all in my head 😛)
