Computer nomenclature
Posted on August 23, 2011 by Jingles | 2 Comments
People name their cars computer geeks name their PCs, gadgets and devices. They even have naming conventions. I like to name my PCs, gadgets and devices after characters or objects from my favourite SciFi shows.
Gaming rig – Talon from Farscape.
ASUS laptop – Pike, a Diagnostic Repair Drone from Farscape.
Dell laptop – 1812 another DRD from Farscape.
HTPC - Xev from Lexx.
Mums laptop – Noranti from Farscape.
Dads desktop – KaDargo from Farscape.
NAS – Moya from Farscape.
Router – Pilot from Farscape.
HTC Desire HD – Starbug from Red Dwarf.
Do you name your PCs and gadgets and devices? How do you name them? Leave a comment.
