I havent replied because my PC's are such low spec compared to what most people have posted.
Interesting when people started putting machine names up.  It indicates the different ways that people think
 
So far we have seen the
 
 "Scientific Domain"
Turing
Feynman
Keplar
Babbage
Tesla
Newton
Faraday
Einstien
 
 
..... and the "Totty Domain".
 
Britney
Christina
Aqua
Pink
Shania
 
.... we havent had a domain named after a football team but I am sure there is one somewhere along with several following Sci-Fi themes.....
 
at work we have a domain called "CAT" which started out with proper names of big cats such as...
Panther
Cheetah
Leopard
Puma
Ocelot etc...
then we ran out so reverted to the cartoon/comic world....
 
Felix
Korky
Benny
Top     (OK TC! )
 
Mine all have to have names starting with a "K"
 
KRAZY (my machine)
KRIS (Sharon's Machine)
KATE ( Amber KATE Doxey's machine)
KHAN (Keith's Home Automation Network)
KOOL (Keith's Obsolete Old Laptop)
KIPAQ  ---- guess
 
and hopefully soon....
 
KITCHEN - (Keith's Intranet Touchscreen Controller - Home Economics Network)
....just made up the acronym for the Fujitsu that will be located in the kitchen for recipes and barcode reading
 
KASS (Keith's Automotive Sound System) a PC for MP3 in the car.
 
and if I ever get into Linux.....
KING (Keith's Intra-Net Gateway) a firewall machine - currently handled by the ISDN Router.
 
Sadly the "BEST" machine is only a K6-2-400 and 98SE is the most recent OS that they will run. Tried Win2K and it wouldnt work with the hardware :-(

to do with my burglary officer"
