    I've been using character names from my favourite movies. A different movie for each network (or each zone in a network, or however you want to categorise it). Home network is all …

    That's seriously cool. I love that retro computing is still alive. Similar to how classic cars still get so much love. For those of us in computers as a hobby (or a career), it's g…
