It's called basel. Here, we have a "theme" for our machine names. Thor,
Odin, Freya, Mjollnir (that's my box) ....
Another place I know has a class C (255 IPs) - and their boxes are called
Hydrogen, Helium .... (last IP corresponding to the appropriate atomic
number).
At home, my box is blackehlo (old joke about "black helicopters" used by
anti-spammers conducting sudden raids on a spam operation - only, these
speak ESMTP, so EHLO instead of HELO) :)
