I just like it when people spend time and effort naming their machines.

Good grief.

All of mine seem to be called "Daniele's iMac".

Daniele

Mine seem to be called Mini-1 and Mini-2.

Picking up on the Blake's Seven reference elsewhere, my main drive is
'Zen' and iPod is 'Orac'. Unfortunately at that point that series just
ran out of steam so my backup Firewire drives are just the
manufacturer's names.

Our network drive is called Momus, and the drive that mirrors
Quarantine's disk is called Enitnarauq.

Cafe Momus?
