Miaow, why not? But a name can be a snare and a delusion: we had another quasi-classical name, atticus, so called because it was located in the attic. Then we moved house and it was relocated under the stairs... And I had my office in the potting-shed for a time, so my very odd-looking skeletal tower box, with bits bolted on in all directions, was named potty. But it soon moved indoors and got a new case so that name was out of date too. And how much refitting is needed to justify a rename? new processer, new case, new motherboard, new hard drives, but all at different times, so at which point should it be renamed? richard -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
