What name have you given to your Mac?
Ok, what name(s) have you given to your Mac(s) (and other computers) ???
And why that / those name(s) ??
My iBook is LoZen ...
And the Acer with RedHat (yesh! no windows..) LaKalsa. My theory is the computers really get pissed off if you change their name cos when i changed LaKalsa to Guevara it didn't work <img src="graemlins/bugeye.gif" border="0" alt="[Skeptical]" /> So 'he' has the same name now in linux he had in windows <img src="graemlins/bugeye.gif" border="0" alt="[Skeptical]" />
I've never explained those name reasons to anyone i guess.. Maye someone'll guess it.
