    Just named my new PC: "MegaZord."
    Is it a cluster of 5 smaller computers?

    Buddy of mine and I just rebuilt a computer in his old Alienware case. We decided to name it GroomLake.

    I'm going to be getting my own mini-datacenter at my job soon, so I'm gonna have to get some names for those fuckers. I say "mini" because there are going to be only 7 to 9 computers. Suggestions?

    What kind of theme do you want?

    You could call them 'Monday', 'Tuesday', 'Wednesday', 'Thursday', 'Friday', and the rest 'Weekend'. Works best with 4 day weekends.
    EDIT: Or you could go with:
    All of my computers are named Spartacus.

    My Desktop is called Ninja, because I built it to work silently in the night and it's got a black case. I came up with the name when I replaced the annoyingly loud hard drives in that box. That was when my naming theme started.
    I named my Thinkpad Fury, because it was a roaring beast when I got it. Now it's not that much of a beast anymore, but it's still roaring, although I replaced the fan recently.
    My iPod was called SidIcarus, but it crashed (on the floor, hard) and got replaced by a standard MP3-player with no name.
    My first smartphone was called Kaori, my current smartphone is OkiKuma.
    My Wii is SuperSteve, and my Xbox is Nemesis.
    The old server in our apartment was called Undead, but it got replaced by Reanimator.

    One of my coworkers suggested I use names of anime girls for the processing units and my name for the controller unit.

    In other words, he wants me to start a harem.

    Wiped HD on laptop, installed the ultrasexy Ubuntu Lucid Lynx. The do-everything thin-n-light is now known as "Use of Weapons," continuing my Culture Mind naming scheme.

    I really, really like the fact that an IM client and email are integrated into the OS.

    In that case, look up Negima. From what I know that guy has an entire classroom of girls. Not to mention, his new series where he has a snowgirl that desperately want to bone him.
