Inconsistent naming scheme of gui logs #430

Closed alexpiet closed 4 months ago

Right now, the gui names the computers in 447 with "447-1-A" style names, and "W10DT713668-A" style numbers for other computers. In order to keep the "447-1-A" style, I need to manually maintain a mapping of hostnames to box numbers in the GUI code. Thats annoying, and prone to being out of date. I propose moving to using "-<A/B/C/D>" for all gui logs. Note that I don't have access to the box name when I start the gui log file, because the settings file hasn't been loaded yet.

This should only impact my automatic parsing system, and will not impact the GUI operation.
