Re: Names for Office b0xen

[Dan Brosemer <odin@cleannorth.org>]

Things have names that are addressed on the network.  The Exabyte drive
isn't, and neither is the harcopy logger.  The UPSs _really_ aren't.

The one exception is "FRED" and I'll publicly state that I had no part in
that.

We're running out of good names, anyway.  (keep in mind that R2-D2 and C3PO
are retired).
