Well, I finally figured out what the problem with Max was. I had made a huge tarball of all of my important files on Ziggy, and it took up all of Max's hard drive. I've also figured out where Max could come from. You see, my other two towers are named after computers from TV (Ziggy from Quantum Leap and Sandy from MacGyver). I was trying to come up with one my third, and Mary suggested Max. Well, I just remembered a TV computer called Max: Max Headroom! OK, so he wasn't actually a computer so much as a computer program, but hey, it works.
(My-brain-was-made-for-playing-six-degrees postscript: The voice of Max Headroom was done by Matt Frewer, who, in addition to playing that character- whose-name-I-forget on the show, also has appeared in The Fourth Protocol, Episode "A Matter of Time" of Star Trek: The Next Generation, and is a regular on Psi Factor: Chronicles of the Paranormal, a show hosted by Dan Ackroyd...)
