I prefer Lisa as a representative ... quiet, smart, talented.

Bart is the PC ... loud, in your face, dumb.

Our primary HP 3000 is named "lisa", and our RS 6000 is "bart".

(We originally named all of our 3000s and Unix boxes after Simpsons
characters...."homer" is a 9000/350 (old, and slow))
("maggie" is our 3000/37 our littlest HP 3000)
