Who is this Ron guy?
Not very seriously:
- Eric or anything containing it (neweric?)
- a new Tim (timN for Timothy Newbox)Thinking of naming it like a dog:
- Box,Machine or Computer (my Mum always wanted to call one of her dogs 'Dog')
- Bullet (best name ever for a dog!)Or we could go for a 'cool' name. I always liked a guy who
posted to a newgroup I read from purplehaze.sun.com...How about Turing, vonNeumann or Godel? Or Bill or Gates :-)
Or, my favourite, Pipes (Pan, geddit?)
