I got a new laptop off an Amazon Prime Day sale. It's nice to be able to just buy one when the old one's wearing out. Probably I would have dithered a bit more, but the sale was good, the brand has been reliable in the past, and the specs are similar to what I've had in the past.

Of course now I have to name her. I was thinking vaguely about Ancalime but that seems a bit ill-fated. Something Silmarilliony would be nice, but as serious as things have been, maybe a little whimsy would be better? Bombadillo perhaps? I'm open to suggestions if anyone has any ideas.

I find that things usually name themselves in a short time after using them.

I love my laptop. I bought it when Smaug died and I needed to replace him with a new portable. I hope you enjoy your new computer for years to come.

Maybe "Palantir" can be your Pal!

I love Bombadillo--it's so... bombastic. LOL Or maybe one of the silly words from his many songs. Ring-a-ding-dillo is fun to say. Merry Doll or Derry Doll, perhaps.

My current laptop is Finrod, and I've had Feanor and Bilbo in the past. Somehow my laptops always appear to be male.

If you are thinking about Numenorean Queens, you could go for Telperien instead, maybe?
Silmarillony (sort of): perhaps Rumil, because it is a repository for lore and is for ruminating?
