Dear Linguistics Department,

we are *very* happy to tell everyone that our 8 lovely brand-new
computers have arrived in the lab.  These 4 grape iMacs and 4 Dell 
Pentium-III/450  with 128meg of ram are  thanks to the campus's Instructional 
Computing Working Group.  Mike O'Connell is  busy setting them up.
We are writing to ask for:

  1) suggestions for names.  You may recall from our department vote
  four  years ago that our department theme for names is "artificial or 
  fictional languages".  This could include made-up languages from your 
  favorite novel or TV series, myth, or even theory.

  2) Zygmunt F. has generously donated a printer to the lab!  We also
     need a name for this!  Printer names are currently all names of 
     writing systems (cyrillic, jiaguwen, cuneifrm (8 letters max)).
     
  3) help right now (today, friday) unpacking and moving computers around.


Please cc: your name ideas to both mike o'c and me. (oconnelm jurafsky)

thanks folks!
