How do I change my computer name?

Perhaps that wasn't worded so hot, but I've been hunting around in vain to try to figure out how to change the actual computer name of my iBook. I thought it might be pretty easy as in Windoze when I ran OSX 10.3 the first time, but I'm at a loss.

I only want to change it because it's sort of lame, hehehe. Any help is appreciated, of course. :confused:

It is really easy. Go to System Preferences>Sharing>Services.
At the top you will see your computer's current name. All you have to do is highlight it and rename it to something else.

Wow, that was easy. But I would've never thought of looking in Sharing to change the computer name (now I realize why I should have). Thanks a bunch!
