Naming Help (8 comments)

So I had enough spare parts to build a pretty decent new machine: 1.8 GHz Duron, 768 MB PC-2100, 120 GB hard disk, Via KT600-based motherboard, etc. I'm waffling on naming it, though. I'm pretty sure I'll deploy it as a dedicated web and email server so I can better lock down wowbagger. Since I name all my computers after characters in the Hitchhiker's Guide to The Galaxy "trilogy," I've picked out a few choices that I remember fondly:

  1. Zem, an affable sentient mattress.
  2. Slartibartfast, a Magrathean planetary designer who won an award for his exceptional work crafting Norway's fjords.
  3. Arthur, the protagonist.
  4. Random, Arthur's daughter.
  5. Zaphod, the irresponsible President of the galaxy.

Thoughts?
