I dont, however, like being patronized, like when they named the local computer icon on the desktop My Computer. How precious!
That's minutia.
However, did you ever think that there might be a reason for that name/tag? "My Computer" denotes, things that are resident or pertinent to that particular computer, or "your computer", as opposed to, stuff that resides on other computers, which might reside on other computers on a network, which "your computer" might be a part of.

Whatever the old label was, denoted that clearly without being pedantic. Now I just rename the damn thing “Local Machine” and I’m happy.
