What are some names that you all can suggest for new upcoming servers (3-4). For people that suggest a name we choose, you will get a good surprise :)

Should we keep in with the car themes, or move to something else?

If these are more Linux servers, keep the cars rollin'. Maybe throw in some trucks? An Explorer maybe? :D.

If these are Windows servers, we should find a new naming convention.

I don't know Ed, I would have a problem being on a server called Hooker. ;)

I like Cheetah though. What about animal names? I know there is a Jaguar already, as it's a car, but how about these:

Cheetah
Gazelle
Ostrich
Llama

I think sticking to the car theme would be great.

I only have one suggestion, but then again what could be cooler than Caprice :)

Koenigsegg is a pretty new car, don't forget the Volvo is also (originally anyway) Swedish, there is another, I believe Saab was once Swedish, but not going to say that for sure.
Also there was the Norwegian Troll, which basically went bankrupt very very quickly (started up in the 70's or something and didn't last a year even I think).
But how about the Bugattis those are some pretty cool cars.
And you have the Lancia.
If we talk models you have:

Celica (Toyota)
Lancer (Mitsubishi)
Th!nk (Or Think, from Ford, orignally made by a Norwegian company that was bought by Ford to finance the construction of the car)...

Maybe make shared hosting - muscle cars,
Semi-dedicated -> higher end consumer cars
Dedicated -> very high end cars
