PPT, What Should I Name My Computer?

klol
So here's the deal.
My beloved Josh finally died on me.
Diiiieeeedddd.

So this is coming in:

I'm not sure what the four gigabytes is for...if it's memory, mine's only one.
But the case is essentially like that...maybe. I don't completely remember. I saw it when I was half-asleep.

Either way, it needs a name. All my electronics have names, even my television (Shirtless Smitty, babay).
I'm in for all kinds of quirky names. I had four Joshes, I'm on my second Solomon (online computer) and for less than twelve hours, I had a Kakashi.
And no, I'm not naming my new computer Sasuke. That's just wrong. :|

LIST FOR REFERENCE;
Some I've come up with, some came from Solia, Subeta, and a bunch moar.

- GlaDOS
- Ignacio
- Shino or Aburame
- Tsunade
- Ero-sennin
- Steve
- Hal
- Number 8
- I'm a...
- Cortana
- @#%$Q#4223GVR32#$@FVRTG$%% (pronounced Jo-n-es)
- Help! I'm trapped in a computer factory.
- Stan
- Pomme
- Glengarry GlenDOS
- Josh V
- Xanadu
- ShamWOW!
- Marblecake
- Mudkip
- Chicken
- Zetsu
- Fred/George or Gred/Forge
- Eros
- Nagato Yuki, or just Yuki for short
- Minamimoto (for Sho Minamimoto from The World Ends With You)
- Murtur
- Flo
- Mary-Jo-Lisa
- Largo

I love naming things! My car is a boy and he is called "Hugo" but with a French accent.

How about... Ignacio?

You're ordering a computer without actually knowing its spec :roll:

Hmm, since it's a Dell and likely to be buggy as he--, I'd suggest naming it Shino (or Aburame). Or maybe you don't want to jinx it... So name it Tsunade, so it can heal itself? Or Ero-Sennin, depending on what types of things you're going to be doing with it...

Must. Stop. Making. Bad. Naruto. Jokes.

How about Steve, so you can make an elaborate Flight of the Conchords reference?

None besides the obvious. Because who doesn't want a computer named after fish cakes? :D

My computer is named Monolith.

After the Monolith in 2001?

Yeah, it's big, it's black and it has more memory than I do.

Although I do love Skynetmains suggestion. Go for GlaDOS.

Or Josh V. Or... Xanadu. Yeah. ;|

Or you could call it ShamWOW!.
Chicken?
Marblecake.

No, I know it's specs, I just don't completely remember what the tower's appearance is.
500gb hard drive, 250gb of it will be devoted to running Ubuntu 9.04 (the other 250gb will be for XP Pro). 1gb memory, 2.8ghz processor (wish it was dualcore, but it's not). Not entirely sure on the video card, but as long as it's nVidia I and Ubuntu Jaunty will be cool with it.

My old iPod was named Jefferson. My computer is called Stella and my father's laptop is named Stanly. My zune is called Capone (I got 'im on Valentine's Day...Valentine's Day Massacre...either that or Bugsy Malone). My laptop I'm getting for college will be named Liza Minnelli. :> Also, the disk drive will be named Trevor...haha

If you like any of those names you can ctrl+c them :P

Yeah, we've got our two in-house servers called Jeeves and Benson... I've got a laptop called Murdoch, computers called BigYin, Tavish and Jamima Puddlesworth, car called Bess and my iPod's called Dougal.

I understand.

I'd probably go with Trevor... or even better... Magical Trevor :D
