    Well the obvious one that comes to mind is UGLY

    Of course its not at ugly as the spy photos. But on a serious note, how about "dualie". Think about it, it has 2 full optical bays, 2 USB in back, 2 Firewire in back, 2 G4s, 2*2 air holes in front, and lets not forget 2 display connections.

    I vote "Sleestack" as I imagine the sound they made eminating from those plastic nostril things.

    Based on the 'duelies' post you could also try "bi". I like the dual meaning!

    MiMac- thats right - the new tower is called



    "The Gulfstream"



    based on its appearance AND the Gulstream V that Apple gave Steve for coming back!



    Good call!

    I like 'duelie' plus it appeals to the red-necks who may confuse it with the type of pickup truck!

    Sawtooth, Quicksilver...apple likes, and we have choosen one word names, not hypenated or long things to say. And with 2 being the magic number for this tower...



    BiMac (almost fits with the 'i' hardware from apple)

    BiSilver (almost fits with the 'i' hardware from apple)

    Deucie



    You can tell i'm not an expert at this!



    Yosemities revenge I like, but maybe Yosemitie2 or something of that nature, I would think of 2 being in there, and relating to a previous name maybe.

    When you said BiMac, I thought, "Sure, I'll take a couple of <a href="http://www.theapplecollection.com/iMac/iMacGirl.shtml"; target="_blank">these</a>.



    I mean, one is good too, but why Bi, unless you get at least a pair?
