Some may have noticed that any Macintosh computer name containing an apostrophe is listed incorrectly in Resource Manager. This is actually a function of the Mac OS X operating system. It creates a hostname from the name specified in System Preferences/Sharing by removing apostrophes and changing spaces to dashes. See the following chart for more information.
