Computer name: Dog1
Workgroup: Woof

Reason: Rise of the Triads had, besides a God mode, a Dog mode. Ever since playing that multiplayer at the university for months, I've called my chars on FPS-es Dog. Quite suitable anyway for Wolfenstein ;)
(Had to think of a name for the Workgroup too, and as my standard line is 'Woof!' or 'Woof, bloody woof!', I chose that)

My main machine is called "Jonah" because it was caught in the belly of the whale known as tufshop.com for....well, it was more than three days,
my secondary I named "Job" because it is constantly tormented but remains faithful,
and the third one I called "elcheapo" because it cost me 80 bucks (spare parts from upgrades slapped together plus free monitor, case, etc.)
I really only use Jonah, though (see sig link :))

My work machines are buddha and shaolin. The servers I admin are banana and nut (they wouldn't let me call it hairy). And my personal PCs are togepi and jigglypuff (used to have psyduck). Makes no sense at all.

My Dad's current computer, the one I built, and used to share with him, is named Katie. I had a crush on Katie in sixth grade. :)
My current computer is named Kristan. That was 8th grade. ;) She is so beautiful, and her voice = win! :)
Next computer will be named Alli, after Allison, another girl from 8th grade.

I was too much of a wuss to try to get with Alli; I think she had a crush on me. :(

EDIT: 8th grade had a significant emotional impact on me...(considering the fact that I skipped the last three years of high school)

My PC is named Becky.
My Linux box is named Kain.

I'm going to give Becky to my bro, so my new one will "legally" renamed to be Becky, and I'll let my bro name his new one.
