I have two identical computers side-by-side on my KVM at work. What should I name them?

beer

They're just about identical. They're both Dell Dimension 4100s, 1 GHz P3s, with 512 MB RAM each. One of them has a serial-ATA hard drive that the other lacks, and the other has a DVD ROM and a ZIp drive (the other one just has a CDRW). One has a Geforce2 MX and the other has a Riva TNT M64; one is running XP and the other Linux. I want to know what I should name them. The only requirement is that the names have to start with the same letter, so people browsing the network get the joke.

The only one that I can think of is Romulus and Remus. What else should I consider?

why would they need the same letter?
If people are just browsing the network of 50 or so computers, they might not get the reference if they're too far apart from each other.
