Naming Gadgets
AJ Jorge October 30th, 2008
With the influx of gadgets in our hands, Pen and I decided to christen each of them yesterday. We were sort of doing this tradition few years back when we started to call our shared desktop in UP as “Tower1″ in honor of the Sept 11 tragedy – the day we also bought that desktop.
So how did our naming went? We zoomed in for a certain theme first. Fruits? Solar system? Actors? Mathematicians (ewww)?
We settled for the Greek mythos.
My Mac is Zeus. The god of gods.
Pen’s laptop is Nyx – “Goddess of darkness/night. She is also the only being from which Zeus turned from when her son Hypnos, who had angered Zeus, hid behind her.”
Our iPhones are twins so we have Apollo and Artemis.
My 40gb hdd is Achilles cause is slowly dying on me now (have to remember to back up the files!). My 512mb thumdrive is Borus – a mortal, manipulated by the gods (Zeus and Nyx). My 2gb thumdrive is Creon while Pen’s 2gb thumbdrive is Electra. Pen’s 320gb HDD is Dia while my 500gb is Hektor. And finally, the youngest of them all, my 320gb HDD is Kratos (the main character in God of War).
Our PSPs on the other hand being a gaming console, we settled for the Norse gods. We named them Loki and Freyja.
