my computer is named pleiades Laughing

the Japanese equivalent is "Subaru"(yep, same as the .hack//Sign character, and the car brand), the constellation symbolizes elegance and beauty in Japanese culture.

my computer namings involve far too much l337 and the use of the word baka >>;. for instance my current laptop is named "7hin m0b1l3 b4k4" er wait.. that's its description. it's named "t3h_b4k4" pfft whatever. if i get a mac i'd probably name it t3h_l337_b4k4 or something XD;.


~~~ aru hareta hi no koto, mahou ijou no yukai ga ~~~ I'm sorry t3h b4k4 is lost to the anime music. check back later *bzzt*

I've had many Macs... I don't remember all the names.

The last few were "Power_Ranger", a PowerMac and "MacNCheese", a G3 laptop

When MacNCheese's motherboard blew up, I replaced it with a white G4 ibook. That one was named "White_Hope" because I was hoping it would have a longer life, lol.

Recently I replaced it's hard drive with something bigger and upgraded it to Tiger. (I know Tiger has been out forever but I am a very conservative upgrader.) My computer has now been renamed to "White_Tiger" mostly because I couldn't think of anything better at the time.

I have roommates and we have several other Windows computers networked in our house.

The server is named "Vortex" mostly because it is used for downloading things off the net.

One roommate has named his computer "Darth". The other formats his computer a lot and so he renames his computer often. Right now it is named "Eeeek."

We have one very old computer currently in use as a doorstop, but even it has a name... "Stumpy."

I call my computer from Hell computer company Johnny Parkinson's because my mouse has parkinson's disease due to Hell's substandard components.
