Computers -- Male or Female?
Five reasons to believe computers are male:
- They have a lot of data, but are still clueless.
- A better model is right around the corner.
- They look attractive--until you take them home.
- In order to get their attention, you have to turn them on.
- Big power surges knock them out for the rest of the night.
Five reasons to believe computers are female:
- No one but their creator understands their internal logic.
- Even the smallest mistakes are committed to memory.
- The native language used to communicate with others of their kind is incomprehensible to anyone else.
- The message "bad command or file name" is about as informative as, "If you don't know what's wrong, then I'm not going to tell you."
- As soon as you make a commitment to one, you find yourself spending half your paycheck on accessories for it.
