I recently, as I set up with a few friends to have it hosted at another
friend's company (an Web agency/ISP he created many years ago), I looked
for a Batman sound effect for its name.

Kapow! was my first idea, but one of my friends thought it sounded too
much like 'Kapo', so we discarded it.

The machine has finaly been named zowie, and has been up for 38 days, 4
hours, 21 minutes... (the full name is zowie.bruhat.net which is less
funny)

Other machines (not directly connected on the net), by order of appearance
are rose, brad and grouik. zowie was next. I suppose glorko would be a
fine name for the following one... ;-)
