So I have a small computer company and I was looking to give my computers a brand name & model #'ing setup.

Could you guys pick the name you would most want to buy or perhaps own.

<font color=red>Example - If brand were to be 'Bob' you might buy a
Bob 330</font color=red>

You gotta ber careful with the name you choose, a lot of the names listed below will either be trademarked and/or copyrighted internationally. That's why I voted Maelstrom, as its not used by a product/company/film etc.

Frankly, I don't like many of the names. You give your machines a name and model number, then a year later it seems daft because the machine seems slow compared to the technology in that year later! (Did you understand that?)

I would prefer to give the machine a simple company logo badge, and a number on a label behind the case which contains the customer's details.

I currently do like you said. The problem is my company is called PC Supply. That just doesn't have a sound for a computer.

About the computer in a year sounding fast, but being slow...well all computers do that. If I gave the computer a normal sounding name, do you think it will catch people's attention as well?

there all pretty good names, but the one that stands out is the Maelstrom.

You better be one of those HONEST PC sellers who actually will recommend the right PC and not tell 'em an SDRAM Pentium 4 with Intel Extreme Graphics means Cinematic realism!

Blizzard was ok for me. But you can definitely try archaic terms or magic ones if you want.

What's wrong with an Intel Extreem...b;ah I can't preatend, I hate Intel's integreated video. I am probobly a little too honest on my sells. I've lost money selling someone what they need instead of something overpriced and stupid.

Nothing wrong with Intel's Extreme Graphics in the work environment. I mean, do people really need a R9500 to run Outlook and Word?

Another vote for Maelstrom. At least it sounds original!

It's also a gun name, and a Sk8ter shirt brand.

Call it the Integral or The Harmonic Oscillator.

All the things I really like to do are either illegal, immoral, or fattening.
