Naming your PC

[C95J]

This may sound a little silly, but do any of you feel a strong enough attachment to your rig to the point where you feel like it needs its own name to give it character? If so, what would you name your PC if you haven't already, I haven't.

My PC is called Mildred.

MY PC is named Constantine, and my external is named Daniel. I've also named all my iPods, the xbox and have a name for when I get a car. xD

I just Name any PC of mine "Cyrus" and add a number to show which number PC it is for me, so my first computer ever was Cyrus1, my laptop was Cyrus2, my new desktop Cyrus3 and my newer laptop Cyrus4.

So as I had originally stated, I had (at the time of posting) no name for my Rig. I have now decided on one. I have decided to call it "Silvana" named after the famous uber floating battleship from the anime series "Last Exile" for those that are familiar to that show. Basically taking the extreme power aspect to resemble my PC, given its hardware parts and how smoothly it functions. anyway, that is all. lol. you may discuss this further at your guys leisure.

My desktop is called CS-2384 (CS standing for Cyberdyne Systems, of course).

My PS3 is called CS-1273.

My PSP is called PSP-chan. (too much anime, that day)

My 360 isn't named.

Depending on my mood it ranges from "Fucker" to "Love". I have an actual official name, however: "notadesktop".

I'm currently working off of a pretty nice Asus laptop rig, which I've tentatively named Zeus, until I find a better name - if I do.

I named my trusty rig Mawhrin-Skel when I bought it five or so years ago, because my best friend had already called hers Skaffen-Amtiskaw. Oh to be young, and in love with Culture novels.

I just bought a laptop for uni, and when asked to name it, called it Saffron.
She's dark red, very powerful, and extremely sexy, like Christina Hendricks' chracter in Firefly. Yum yum.

i need to learn to do that

1. get a program called GCFScrape
2. use it to open "Steam\SteamApps\portal english.gcf"
3. In GCFScrape navigate to "Root\portal\sound\npc\"
4. Right click the folder "turret_floor" and left click extract.
5. Exit GCFScrape and go to where you extracted it, all the sounds will be their.
6. the sounds all have nondescript names so it pays to listen to each one and rename it so you know which is which.
7. Next go to the "control Panel" and open "Sounds and Devices" (make sure its in classic view if using vista or win 7) and go to the "Sounds" tab.
8. Select an event to assign a sound to, left click "browse...", open the sound file you want to attach, then click the little arrow to make sure you picked the right one.
9. Repeat the step 8 until you have assigned all the sounds you want. (you don't need to put a sound to every event.
10. Click "Apply"

and your done
Questions?
