God's Child

Put a God's photo on the drive icon and name it as a synonym of God's child, so that he saves your laptop from all kinds of disasters (Hardware failure, overheating, scratches, loosing color and what not.):)

I simply do not give names to my Macs or PC's... But good luck finding one.

άσπρος (aspros) - white
καθαρότητα (katharotita) - purity
αγνότητα (agnotita) - another form of purity

PS - This is modern Greek, ancient for pure/sacred would be (some of those words are not in ancient greek):

αγνός (agnos)

Tennessee.
I actually renamed my stuff today out of pure boredom. The dead computer is Hypnos because it'll never wake back up. The computer that works right now is Tartarus because it's slow as Hell. my iPod is Apollo (Music), and my 360 is named Cerberus because of the three cores. My Macbook Pro will be Aphrodite because it's like a sex-goddess/

name it kenny, so when you drop your laptop, your friends can do;

"Oh my god! He killed Kenny!"
"You Bastard!"

I have to say Apollo is awesome- so similar to Apple as well...maybe some way to work that in creatively in an icon- the light/music, etc fits your DJing for sure- maybe it could be your logo for your DJ biz?

Yeah, thats a name i'm definatley considering at the moment.

Aspros is another one i'm going to consider. My boyfriend is trying to teach me Greek at the moment (he's from Cypruss) so if the laptop was to be called something greek, it would have 2 meanings in my life.

These suggestions are awesome guys! Keep them coming if you can, i'm hopeless with stuff like this.

It might be long, but try "I asked a stupid question in a hardware forum instead of general discussions because I'm special" for a name.
