Well, I typically rebuild an entire system when they are reassigned so tying the name to the user is possible but I still try not to as it ends up cluttering my AD. I prefer standardized names which tend to include the Site, Department, Type (laptop/desktop), and a number identifier so a customer in Boston MA in the Accounting department with a Desktop might be BOSACCDSK0001. Very bland and unimaginative but it works well.

MattSparkes writes "Many images you see in a magazine are Photoshopped, and it's getting less and less likely that what you see at the cinema is any more genuine. In the film 'Blood Diamond', tears were added to Jennifer Connolly's face after a scene was shot. According to The Times, digital effects artists can even change actors' expressions. 'Opening or closing eyes; making a limp more convincing; removing breathing signs; eradicating blinking eyelids from a lingering gaze; or splicing together different takes of an unsuccessful love scene to produce one in which both parties look like they are enjoying themselves.' The article mentions the moral qualms digital effects people have over performing these manipulations, and the steps actors are taking to protect their digital assets."
