What's the name of your rig?

[C.Brutail]

A fun topic again
My two pcss are named: "quadra" and "lair" .
Quadra is the powerfull pc at the uni, lair is the lil old machine. They all run debian sid only.

Their names originate from a book. Or better to say, from a never ended book. One of my best freinds once started a sci-fi book, for his own entertainment. He used his friends as actors in it , the story was a weird mix of Tolkien's world and Star Wars. I featured a young knight in the book, and I was befriended by a dragon, named Quadra. The "Quadra" name itself comes from the allmighty "Quad Damage" . Lair comes from the book too, it was my sword's name, and it refers to one of my favorite weapons from Quake2

And, what's YOUR story?

[Psychcf]

psych1 (AKA "crappy laptop", or craptop for short), psych2 (server AKA 'this lagging pile of crap'), psych3 (palm pilot), and psych4 (gaming rig AKA "holy fuck what's that")

I think you can figure out the story behind the names.

beowulf - laptop Ubuntu partition, achilles - laptop Solaris partition, grendel - server
very unclever names, they have no meaning behind them, except when I had just beowulf and grendel

Aoi-kun is my named. "Aoi" is the actual name the -kun is a Japanese honorific. Aoi/Ao means blue, named it like that cause of the blue leds it has on the front and the blue fan in the back surrounding the whole chassi in blue.

It did give me problems before so I figured if I got a little more personal maybe I could be friends with it and it would be nice to me too And fortunately it did work a little. Nice Aoi-kun.

[GreEn`mArine]

"mariusxp"

it's just named like the partitions. I don't see any sense in giving an OS a name...
