    Old blue and white machine is "Albion".
    Red monster in a Viper case is "Snakepit".
    and transluscent green acrylic mATX is "Crystal Mighty".

    PC I built for my mum was in a pink I-Tee case and I named it "Pink Beast" - very embarrassing when she had PC lessons and the lady teacher noticed the name!

    Currently they are rather boring technical names.

    But in the past they've been:
    Strider,
    Elessar,
    Envinyatir
    (rather sad I know )

    and:
    Pedigree
    Best
    Directors
    (equally sad now I look back on it )
