Another example of off the wall, a coyote was the smartest member of the 
canine's I've ever met. This bitch could do simple arithmetic, barking 
the number of times the answer was. This machine is the best of about 8 
here, so whatever has been on this desk has been "coyote" for nearly 40 
years.  Coyotes have a den so the domainname as FQDN in the hosts file 
is coyote.den, I've had zero problems with that since the late 80's when 
coyote.coyote.den was a full blown Amiga 2000 with a 68040 board in it 
with 64 megs of main memory. Never had a winderz machine in real use. 
Bought a lappy with xp in it when I retired in 2002. put mandrake on it, 
blew away the winderz two weeks later cuz winderz couldn't drive the 
radio but mandrake could. It died of a dead battery over a decade back. 
pi based stuff is moving in and the power bill is going down.
