I named mine Nala, after the character in Lion King.

My eyes see the past…

My camera lens sees the present…

PHOENIX, because my computer has died and been reborn multiple times.

I actually couldn't underclock my 5 year old GPU to make it as slow as a next-gen console.

I'm shocked, honestly. I have 2 computers in my house with the exact same names as OP's, GLaDOS and Cortana. Mine is named "SKY-NET".

If I ever build a PC I'll call it 'Prebuilt'

 

Because PC part prices here are total s*** and it feels like you're paying for a prebuilt

HP Pavilion p007tx (i5 4210u, gt840m, 8GB DDR3 memory and a 1 TB HDD that makes cool sounds when booting up) 

Since my laptop can't run modern games too well I use a PS4

Currently everything I have is medieval ages inspired. The network is "The Kingdom" and the devices on it are as follows: King (My main rig) , Scribe (printer) , Mini Messenger (My phone), Jester (TV PC) and so on and so forth for other computers that could fit into a castle somehow.

I call my personal machine "Diesel" because it's ugly,weird, dirty and works very well, it's a good PC, i'll be getting a more classic case (a Cooler Master ATCS 840 or similar) and a 90's GM Diesel badge for it in the next few months, sort the cables more decently and keep it clean, the Sentey BX2 with the led fans is revolting for me...

Senketsu.

 

Because Kill La Kill is one of my absolute favorite animes, and Senketsu is absolutely badass. I had my three drives named Satsuki, Ryuko and Mako for a few days, then my wife saw it and thought I was being weirder than usual. They're now my Warp Drive (W:), my Impulse Drive (I:) and Skynet (C:).

Aerocool DS are the best fans you've never tried.

I use most of those as well. Anything from Greek, Roman, Norse, or Egyptian Mythology really.

You should've kept the Star Trek propulsion theme and used "Slipstream Drive" instead of "Skynet"~

That is clever, though. The most creative name I've ever given to a storage device is "Data Library".

I wonder how many people would get that reference.
