I like your Mac's name. Now that a character from the Bond films has made an appearance here, how much time will elapse before someone informs us that their Mac is named ... ***** Galore?

It's actually a Powerbook, but I don't want it to get a big head.

My main computer is called E.V.E. from the Japanese Anime "Megazone 23". She's the computer-generated personality that protects the people. My server is called Bahamoud which is also from Megazone 23. My AluBook 15" is called T-X from Terminator 3 because she's sexy and silver.

My mass storage computer is always named "File Vault" I'm on the third one so far. And I came up with this name years before it appeared in Mac OS X. My music server is always called "Music Machine", on number 3. My main computer is called "Megatron". My network SSID is "Optimus Prime". My roomates G5 dualie is "Monolith". And my other roomates PC is "troublesomePOS", since it is a windows machine that I have reformatted three times.

[MacTruck]

i have a tendency to call my Powerbook Tiki, why you may ask? because my Tiki man shotglass is always next to it, i use it to hold my shuffle or jumpdrive and not to take shots, because its of the ~2.5 shot size..... so i just started calling my 'book Tiki

I'll bet that tiki shot glass is plenty pissed.

A friend of mine named my PM (before it arrived, in fact), Jaffar. It has stuck.
