These were big SGI mainframe/graphics machines - they were cold, heartless, and did not love humanity. So we named them after mass-murderers - figuring we'd probably never run out of names:

  • Lechter
  • Sutcliffe
  • Hinkley
  • Borgas
  • Dornier
  • etc

Some of these SGI boxes were multi-headed - two monitors, two keyboard, two mice...those were named for mass murderers with split personalities.
