computers are our friends
i'm pretty damn enchanted with the Aspire One. so far i'm okay with Linpus with a regular Xfce desktop, but even if i do make the move to Xubuntu she'll still be mouse-powered and mouse-sized.
therefore i will call her Miss Bianca. not the Disney version, but the one from the novel who wears a fine silver chain and travels by diplomatic pouch. she arrived at my house inexperienced and airheaded, but she has a good heart and will continue to improve with time. (i briefly considered Reepicheep, but this lappy is definitely a girl. also, who can say Reepicheep in casual conversation with a straight face?)
this breaks up the household naming scheme a bit (since we usually name devices after minor gods and/or mythic figures and the network is Annwn) but C says that heroes have an elevated place in the afterlife, so she belongs.
