| 76699 | 2002-09-05 07:48:00 | Hi all, just finished reading an article about computers and a short study to determine the sex of a computer. They had two groups, male and female and they came up with this so far:- The Woman determined a computer must be male 1 in order to get their attention you have to turn them on 2 they have a lot of data but are still clueless 3 they are supposed to help you solve problems but half the time they are the problem 4 as soon as you commit to one you realise that if you had waited a little longer you could have had a better model The Men determined a computer must be female 1 no one but their creator understands their internal logic 2 the language they use to communicate with other computers is incomprehensible to everyone else 3 even your smallest mistakes are stored in long term memory for later retreival 4 as soon as you make a commitment to one you find yourself spending half your pay on accessories and maintenance Which do you think is right?? Are Computers like ships and female or are they male? |

Sam is > the linux box. errrrr How many times have you told the forum that Chris. Computers are mechanical/electrical things, programmed by humans. Stop talking to them. You need children and/or a pet LOL (just being a smart ass) |

I spose it depends on what peripherals and internal hardware the computer has as well. I refer to my computer as a box or a rig. :D I'd say that my computer is a male because it is powerful. |
