My stealthy black MacBook has arrived! Alas, the firewire cable has not, which means I have to be patient and not even switch it on until I'm ready to transfer everything from Heart of Gold onto the new computer ( Read more... )

Onyx. Obsidian. Erm...Shadow. Dusk. It's early yet; apologies for the generic-ness.

And I admit it: I think Darth Writer would be awesome.

Oh no, not another one!

I like Shadow a lot, except that I didn't like American Gods...

The book didn't win me over either really; I was just suggestng the name in keeping with the whole darkness theme. ^_^

I'll have to charge you for use of the name, though.

Ha!

This one made me laugh out loud, which made people at the coffeeshop stare at me.

(I turned it into a Prairie Home Companion reference...was that right?)

Well, since it's a stealth laptop, you could go with stealth aircraft designs:

Tacit Blue
Black Widow
B-2 Bomber
Raptor
Messerschmidt Lampyridae

Totally kidding on those. Though "Tacit Blue" has a ring to it.

*returns from googling Messerschmidt Lampyridae*

Heh.

Now, if there was a stealth spaceship...

K't'inga

I mean, the Romulans are sneakier, but the Klingons have stealth spaceships, too. :)

I've got a tendency to name my toys after flowers, so if it were me, there's no way I'd be able to pass up the opportunity to use Dahlia.

Dahlia also very good. I was thinking Orchid, earlier.

But I'm not really a flower person.

Damn, there goes another FedEx truck! Right past the coffeeshop! Maybe the firewire cable is on it...
