Not as bad as Itanium. :)

My naming scheme for computers has mostly been Vehicles from TV/Movies. 
(i have names such as love boat, herbie (the love bug), spaceball1
(which after a significant upgrade became...  Megamaid), kit, Shadowfax,
and Skyfire (a transformer).)  If i get a machine with an opteron, it
WILL BE OptimusPrime.
