Whereas my main computer has had the same name since I set it up--
neuromancer. My naming scheme is AI computers/robots (I have to throw
in robots to include my fiance's computer, Canti). That system has
been in several cases, with several different processors (AMD Duron,
P3, now Celeron D). The only thing that's remained constant is most
of the data in my home dir, and even that's moved across a couple
harddrives.

My naming scheme is similar to yours, but based on Battlestar
Galactica. I have Caprica(router), Starbuck (Temperamental),
Galactica, Earth(Server), Cylon (Wireless router) and
Basestar(Laptop).

Names remain the same over different hardware - less work. For me it
is the data it holds or the function it performs that I name.

ping, it works completely, I just can't figure out where in my
apartment it is.
