well brain....

The home built machine is goign to be running win 2K3 server....

i will be a web/DNS server along with being a great gaming machine.... i may also swithc my email servr to this machine... the thing is gonan be a beast...

once i switch the mail server that allows the dell optiplex (p2 400/256RAM) to become basically a Tivo, its running mandrake right now and i have the ne whaupaggee wintv pvr for it so thats going into my entertainment center right below my dvd player and becomeing a tivo...stilllokking for a usb remote that works well with the linux pvr software i have.

then theres the 51m, the mack daddy of them all... this iwll just be the mobile gmaing monster we all knwo and love.

i also have a dell dimension 4600 (p4 1.8 640RAM) running XP this is basically my internet/cd bruning/word processing do it all tpye ocmputer.

and finall the p 200 compaq presarrio running openBSD acting as a firewall.

thats the set-up of my home network...

i have a "Gods" type naming convention if any wouldliek to suggest a name for the 51m...

home built server - "Mt. Olympus"
Dimension - "Zues"
Optiplex "Posiedon"
Presario "Hera"

51m = ????

maybe something involving a god of flight for mobility???

hehe, nice one!

Well i use somewhat like that namestandard, i uses dark angels from the bible.
I have:
Belial (Firewall)
Mastema(Web)
Watchers(Laptop)
Jackass(Gaming comp) - This is not a part of that name standard

Maybee you can use Thor witch is a god in the swedish/scandinavian mythology?

I named mine "Elenor" after that car in gone in sixy seconds! After all alienware was for a long time my unicorn!

BTW if you are wondering about the new avatar the old one was a quick 5 min job and did not represent my personality correctly this new I fell suits me better! (its also where the nickname originated!) I was accuesed of having a split personality one being Pinky the other beign the brain! so they got all smashed around untill braingoo was born just though I would let you know not that you cared!

What are we doing tonight brain. The same thing we do every night pinky!
