Names For New CSCF Servers

One of the side-effects of the splitting of the Math computing environment is that the CSCF servers have been left with really lame names, such as cpu02.cs, cpu04.cs, etc. We at mathNEWS see this as a really crummy system compared to something like the dead Mathie scheme used before. Thus, we suggest the following names for servers:

The Cute

• Spanky
• Upchuck
• AgnesisZombie
• DescartesDesucks
• MFCFSUX
• Yomomma [Heh, ssh into your mom... wait, why am I using an editor tag in my own article? — iEd]

The Descriptive

• Crashprone
• EZhack
• Molasses
• DDOStarget
• BSOD
• Pingbombbait
• Moneypit
• NeverNeverUp
• CSPowerTrip
• Nofirewall

The Inevitable

• Gates
• BillGates
• WilliamGates
• WilliamHGates
• WilliamHGatesIII
