I simply had to call one of my new ( old ) computers, VOLTRON!

Presently my network consists of ASTRO, MACHINE, BENDER, JOHNNY5, HAL, VOLTRON, DOOM, SMITH, TERMINATOR, TRIMAXIAN, MOTHER and R2D2.

Oh, and I named my pink iMac SONNY, after the NS-5 robot from iRobot, because, well, it's GAY.

As you can probably guess, the main theme is famous AI or robots.

Hosts on 10.37.0.0/16 are all part of the network named CYBERDYNE, with a local DNS zone cyberdyne.jj5.net.

Kick arse!

I need a name for my wireless network, presently it's called VIKING, but I want something cooler, maybe something like BORG, or HIVE, or CLUSTER, or SWARM, or something Zerg-like. Is there a famous Psi Disrupter? Maybe I could name it after a Dark Templar, after all, it *does* channel Dark Energies! ;)

I probably want a name for the router that routes me to the Internet. Something cool, maybe after a road that leads to a stange place, like, RABBIT-HOLE, or VORTEX, or KEY-MAKER, or WORM-HOLE, or something like that..
