    Mine's rather lame.... K-os (....chaos...get it?)

    But at work we have a naming system, every computer is named after someone in the bible.. makes it easier to remember them all.

    My computer's named "Jimmy". Don't ask. It was named after a dead dog. Which is kinda funny since it's a 2.4 gHZ processing demon.

    OVERLOAD

    Because I pretty much fill up the Hard Drive after only a day and I overclock my Processor. It also sounded cool at the time

    God mines named something wierd, i was reading this post about the way BT works as at the time i was having a mare with their broadband service and they had a list of names of thier Hubs and just out of sheer bordem when i named my PC i used the same convention.
    Funnily enough a few days later i got a call from a very confused BT Engineere asking me if i was connected to their broadband service and a few other questions, never did change it back or hear anything more from them.
