I use old man names, old man names in this case being those names which where archaic when I was little and only very old men had them. No idea why, just started doing it 25 years ago and kept it up. But hostname for my main computer has always been yeoman, I assume it is because it does the yeoman's share but I really don't remember, might have just been a whim.



Out of all the comments, this one speaks to me the most. No idea why either :) but I think I have my new system. Thank you for posting this!
