*raises hand*

Some highlights: the C64 is Jack, the Plus/4 is Dave (after Dave Haynie),
the C128 is Fish and the C128DCR is Bil. (All named after Commodore designers/
management). The PC-20-III is Irving; the PET 2001-16B is Leonard (after
Leonard Tramiel); and the Amiga 500 is, naturally, Lorraine.

Oh, and the VIC-20 is ... Victor.
