Hey,
whenever I start Arch I get the message 'Arch Linux x.x.x-x-Arch ((none)) (ttyx). Thus, logging in I get username@(none).
How do I get rid of the (none)? Isn't that suppose to be my computer name? If so, how do I rename my computer?
Sorry for bugging with newbie questions, but can't seem to find a useful answer, probably due to me not understanding where the problem lies.
Thanks!

Check the conf file located /etc/rc.conf should be a hostname option.

Have you read the Beginners' Guide? You should follow that when installing and setting up your system.

I admit I haven't read the beginners guide. I didn't think that I will run into so many 'walls'.
I actually tried changing hostname, just forgot to reboot.
... good old reboot. Sometimes it even helps in unix systems...

Rebooting helps somethings. But nothing helps like RingTFingM.

Good ol' reading/searching/wiki-ing - it helps no matter what system you have
