I don't know why, but one day many years ago I decided I'd name all my PCs after old and/or dead musicians. Morrison and Dylan were random family PCs, my games machine that I left behind in Ireland was Hendrix, and my laptop that I currently use is Joplin.

I'm getting a nice new gaming desktop for christmas and I'll probably call it Mercury. Then when I get some more money I'll probably pass Mercury to my wife and make a new ubergamer called Lennon

Well, (on a lan at least) you have to give it some kind of name. The default of WINDOWS-Z62HN215 or something like that is a bit hard to remember

That's the kiddy. Priest's names Mrs Doyle used when trying to guess Todd Unctious' name. (Although some of them are spelt wrong there, I got them from the scripts. And I still spelt hairycakelynum wrong!) Where should I send the packet of biscuits?

And for an extra point, what's Mrs Doyle's first name?
