        You really thought I don’t know that place exists so you had to include a wiki link. I’ve been there multiple times. It’s also on their wallpaper with the OS. Just lame for a company to not think of a better name for their computer.

          Yes. I did think that. Because you’re some rando on the internet that said some shit in text that indicated that you did not know that. So I goofed on ya. Its all good :)

      You want them to name it after a star, or an old God, or maybe a river, or one of the many other things that every company names everything after?
