The naming scheme of systems in the hackspace is "people involved in computing". However, pronunciation issues rule out names like Dijkstra, Kay and Hoare.
We currently need a name for the computer that will be connected up to the Makerbot.
Old names
Names used on systems no longer in use.
- Knuth
Current names
- Babbage (Server in the space)
- Turing (Bitfolk VM)
- Lovelace (Workstation)
Potential names
Potential names not from the scheme
- Pong/Ping
- Micropig/Spiderpig
- Bubbles, Buttercup & Blossom
