If you want to use different preferences for your comps, you should manage this on your account-page on the website. You can select a different location for each computer and then specify the different preferences to each loacation.
At the bottom of the 'General Preferences' page you'll find the 'Add separate preferences for home/work/school'-links.
To change the location of your comp, go to Your account->View computers and click on 'Computer ID', then at the bottom of that page there's the option to change location.
In BOINC Manager I don't use different names for my comps, I leave this just blank or enter 'localhost', if connection fails.

Have fun configuring ;-) and crunching, of course!
