The Fate is not the same for all people. Are you superstitious?

I keep telling , I'm going to start naming them (largely because I'd rather type "pi" or "nu" rather than "artemis" or "magnesium").
... However, he's so quick with the installs that by the time a machine has arrived at the data center, he's already given it a name and issued it an IP. I'm thinking we should get a list of Norse gods or hero's. Thor and Loki are easier to type than most elements or Greek gods (except perhaps Thor's hammer - Mjolnir, at least for Anglophones )Cheers Jeff |

Nice List. I think we'll go with with the Norse names. They are shorter (as I suspected).
Cheers Jeff |
