Previous post in this thread aside, the PCs in my house are currently named after Goa'uld System Lords.

(I watch Stargate SG-1 far too much.)

Back in the day, called it power chower. Thought my good ol 6600 GT was using too much power. Bought a bigger PSU. And ya, never helped. Turns out all I needed to do was click one setting. And problem solved. Write combining i tell you...

From there it evolutionised to power tower. And its stuck since then.

When I talk too it tho [like i talk to taxis sometimes], the words that come out of my mouth are not fit for a ladies ears... :lol:

I simply call it My PC. It gives me **** sometimes (usually resulting in exceptionally vile words), but I still love it.

Though, it's scheduled for an upgrade soon... Dunno what I should call it after that.

On the network, it's called Dark (easy for all my friends to access my PC via LAN)
