Let's vote for the name

[feeef]

Based on the brainstorming about the name of the computer, I picked up the names that seemed to be the most liked and which were not to be mistaken with something else.

I got rid of "PowerZen" in this list because it is used by pills for sexual performances. However, If you think this is not a problem, I may add it back.

Let's vote!

Here is some logo studies I have done so far. Feel free to post yours on this topic!

so what you guys think about "iPPCLinux" ?

I am not too keen on this name but I have added it to the poll! People can vote for it.

[markos]

how about just "π"-ower (ie, power but using the greek letter for 'pi' instead?)
"π" is a letter denoting a universal mathematical constant, something really recognizable. Or some other similar form.

So, π-ower for 1st model, π-ower^2 (or π^2-ower) for 2nd model, etc

Just an idea.

I have added  π-ower

This one seems to get some interest. How would you pronounce it?

[Raffaele_Megabyte]

Pi-ower is great name but anglophone readers will tend to see greek p as a "m" so then pronouncing "π-ower" as "mower"... That's no good.
Or at least seen it as a piece of metal junk as a "mower" could also being of some sort of self-humor...

So then a logo showing π-ower embedded in a mower inscribed into a circle will be really great!

While regarding "PowerLibre" logo, let's check also here in the following site-link for kanji and chinese ideograms connected together.

(You know it... Keeping an eye to chinese-like ideograms logo too, could be useful to pay respect to the major market available nowadays and being apprecciated as response)

P.S. I had rather preferred multiple choice poll.

I enjoy π-ower

I'm not sure how it becomes a mower , probably only by mixing a character π with m. I like the idea of making a logo.

Hi,

Now that PowerBooks are not used anymore by Apple, I would like to use it for us :-)
Or alternatives like PowerTop or PowerLaptop.

I agree with Frank.Woo.  The prefix POWER is a must.

[feeef]

I have added PowerTop to the poll as PowerBook refers to existing computers. Even if they are not built anymore, there still are many powerbooks around.

[vox]

None of the names is extremely appealing, but since its closed option I voted PowerTop :-)

Other then that FreePower64 (LibrePower64) would sounds more appealing, at least to me, while keeping the meaning

[feeef]

Hey Vox, I have added a couple of entries to the poll. You may be able to update your vote?
