Call it Colonel Pumpenweasel

That's actually the name of my penis, but you can use it for your computer too, if you like.

A name? It's a bloody PC....

My(main) PC's are currently Belldandy, Yumi and Media.

At one point I did have a Priss, Nene and Linna, and at other times various themed naming conventions, but I tend to rename the machines when they're reinstalled or rebuilt and then forget to update the schemes

I also get complaints if the names are too hard for family to remember (that's what the description's for!).

I've got to work out why one of the older machines isn't booting (the beep codes are not helpful), a job I've been putting off for about six months, as if I can get it working I'll probably set it up as a plex / file / calibre server and name it something appropriate (possibly something like Nancy Readman*).

*A bit of an obscure reference.

Is the Belldandy PC exceedingly helpful and lovely?

I have fairly simple naming convention...
Captain Fizz = CF

CFW8 = Main PC Win8 (Was CFW7 when was on Windows 7)
CFWIFI = Wifi
CFNAS = The NAS
CFMEDIA = Laptop for projector.

Makes things easy :/

Why do you need to put your pc specs in a "name your computer" thread?

David Bisset · 15 Oct 2014 at 09:19

Uhhh, 'desktop', 'lappy', 'work lappy'. I think I'm not doing it right
