Dunno what it says about our mindset but we try to name machines to give
them some character of thier own, not adopt someone else's.
Subsequently, we have names like Solid (main server), Stinky (a print
server), Schtool, Alfredo, Bludgeon (a cisco router actually) and others.
Tho I gotta admit i slipped a bit and named a win9x machine i was working on
Tatiana, after the now famous pole vaulter - oh baby!
