Having seen bug reports with data from the wrong machine multiple
times in the last year, especially related to Mike's new work in vmm,
I'm sorry I have to disagree.  Some developers have even rebooted
the wrong machines.

Not everyone has time to configure their development machines
as you suggest.

This change has *no impact* on the people who already take the time
to change their prompt.  It improves the lives of those who don't have
time to do so.
