    My computer is a she, and has always been called Akizeta. It is her actual name when talking with other computers on our network IIRC. My bro's is called Drogue, which is where my name first came from.

                No. Apollo and Mercury are not alive. They are networked, however, which is almost as good.

                  My computer has multiple personality disorder, as I have it partitioned. Leon is my system disk, with all the stuff which keeps the computer running, Tony is the disk which has all my mp3s and documents on it, and Mathilda stores all games, applications, and REALLY BIG files on it, as it is the biggest partition.

                        Not really, not at all. Unless those are his kids names.

                        ACK!

                            My boxes don't have names, except for the Wintel one that my SO commandeered to play Alpha Centauri on, which she calls "Sally."

                                I was thinking along these lines:

                                Spiffor's friend, "How's "Your Monster" doing?"
                                Spiffor, "It has been up for three days."
                                Random Passer-by (thinking): Up for three days?! Does this guy have a homonal problem?
