Holly - Ahh he was a 486 with a whopping 12mb of ram and a 500 mb hard drive but it had a long life didnt fully retire him until 2000.

I know what you're asking yourself and the answer is yes. The Wii's called the Octagon, but I also nick named the other ones - my 360 is James Westfall and my PS3 is Doctor Kenneth Noisewater. You ladies play your cards right you just might get to meet the whole gang.

You don't watch Red Dwarf do you?

In that, Holly was short for Hollister.

Yes, go watch Red Dwarf Holly is a he ( until series 3 when he takes the image of his love Hilly who is his parallel counter part in parallel universe. continuing to be female till the end of series 5 and when series 6 starts the crimson red one is missing meaning no Holly, then reappearing in season 7 as male in Nanarchy). But no Holly is not short for Hollister - Hollister was the Captain - unless you have read the books which the captain is a woman named kirk

Machines are deserving of names (vehicles, guns, etc)
Electronics: not so much.

I mean really, would you name your TV? Your desk lamp? Your calculator?

These seem to have no discernible personality.


Well with vehicles and even guns getting electronic parts, do you still name them? Or do you stop naming them because they are now electronics?

No, I generally don't name my gadgets, other than to call them what they are. There are exceptions.....

When I owned the Sega Genesis/SegaCD/32X system, I called it, "The Monstrosity".

PC's want a name when you set them up.....we just use various generic names......bud, homey....stuff like that.

But that's about it.
