My uni named all its servers after Lord of the Rings characters. Techies who shout "Bilbo's down again" really have no idea how horrifically nerdy they sound.
XPSex0r is the correct name my old laptop was named RX-78, my current one is RX-93 Setsuna as in "I am GANDAMU"?
ugh... i usually just give stuff a random name whatever happens to pop in my mind at the time, aside phones and just i never use which i just name more creatively PC = kaori laptop = seira phone = junkage ps2 tool = unit-01 retail ps2 = <ip address> <-- not like i had a choice psp and ps3 are never networked or anything so no names for those. aside that it's just the HDD's i keep naming after what's in them but i can't see that being too rare
