How do I give my computers custom names so I can easily differentiate them when viewing BOINCStats?

Depends on the OS.

In Windows you set a computer name through the Network Identification option of the properties of My Computer.

Computer names aren't exported by the projects, so BOINCStats has no idea what they are.
