You haven't had a Gesualdo or a Dowland yet.

..or alternatively you could wait for the new MBP to show up and let it tell you what its name is.

You may not like what it says, but you can always override that anyway since you're the Master of its Hard Drive.

:)

Congratulations on your new purchase! Which size did you order?

The 13 inch version with only 2gig memory. I've been waivering about waiting for a tablet but de la Rue is not in good shape - bad battery, not enough memory, still running tiger.

Well, if you go for Gabrieli or Monteverdi (or Gesualdo for that matter), you're branching out into the Baroque; I'd be inclined to reserve that for a new and different type of machine.

If you do call it Ludovicus Episcopius, I hope I never have to say its name out loud; if I do, I'm going with "Louie the Bishop".
