Awww… I get emotional attachment to stuff like that all the time. I feel bad that I use my new headphones, pencils, t-shirts…. I always feel like I’m betraying my old stuff! Except my new laptop. Her name is Evangeline, and I love her so much more than the old piece of crap buried in my room.
I name things that complex enough to be misterious and have habits / character :)
So my computer is Mushi (half-sentient half-beings in an anime, fits a computer pretty well :D) and my motorcycle is Teresa (she’s dressed in silver and DOES have superhuman strength and modest appetite).
My camera doesn’t have a name though :-/ only that little hotpixel in the lower left corner, Lulu…
I always dismantle all my old electronics…parts and pieces of my old phone are right here right now anyway…can’t take apart the laptop though cause it’s going to my sister :)
I named mine laptop Compunter. Nobody told me that a 17″ hp laptop/cement block baked in hot coals was not a good idea for college. But for some reason, i still love my Compunter.
I name all my computers and external hard drives, haha. My server’s “Penny,” my MacBook Pro’s “Alice” and the various hard drives are White Rabbit, Dave, Michael, Marty, Seamus, Enterprise, Yamato, Remus, and Romulus, ^_^
I’m a bit of a nerd.
Hence I always love disassembling a nice laptop or computer whenever I get the chance ;-)
I’ve had 4 laptops Larry, Butch, Luna, and Horo, i would have protected the first three with my life had i had the chance, I’m never going to let what happened to Luna happen to Horo.
…after reading the comics, I don’t know if we’re all sane or if we’re all a little insane lol. I had a weird emotional attachment to my last laptop (got a new one last month) and named it Colonel Toshi because it was really old and it was a Toshiba. Also because I kept finding fried chicken crumbs inbetween the keys even though I haven’t eaten fried chicken for a couple months. >.>
I’ll miss you, Lappy :(
My laptop’s name is Lappy too… And I should be studying statistical mechanics but I just found these comics.. Can’t stop reading…
Argh, cursed be ye!

I name all of my nameable electronics. It’s quite amazing what personalities they can have.

Oh my GOD. That’s exactly what it was like when my boyfriend dismantled my laptop this summer! I was dying inside. I had to leave the room.

My husband likes to dismantle laptops, too. It is when he is truly happy!

I name my computers…and I create backstories for them…so don’t worry, you’re just as sane as I am!
When my laptop died: I used his body parts to make another one
