    Talk about sexual stereotyping... :D

    That said, my computer is male. He will only do something when told to, only do the one thing he's asked to do, and will only do it in the specific way he is told to. Once he's done, he just plunks back down, and grumbles mightily if asked to do anything else.

    It's a THING, you freaks!! :grin:

    A bitchy thing, but...neutral. Anything made out of hardware and plastic should be. Which means I'm a racist against robots, I suppose.... :p

    Hmmm... I dunno... Which gender is a piece of sh*t? That's what I always call it... "You old piece of sh*t!!!" Hmmm, well I'm guessing male... (I'm male myself, though)

    I would check what gender my computer is, but I respect its privacy.

    My computer is a he. :(
    I usually call him Jävladatorjävel or Snällalillagulledatorn. I wont translate that.
    In both cases I am ready to throw it out through the window. (Tell me when I am not ready to do this and we shall celebrate!)
    He has a thing for candy though. If you put some sweeties infront of him he works faster. But IO have stopped with that for a while ago. I have actually promised myself that I will never be so foolish again to beg my comp to work. He is a ****in mess anyway so if I want him to work properly I use to swear at him and say that I will always hate him and that I will never forgive him and that he wont get a new graphiccard in YEARS!
    (The last part is npot so good though since it affects me in the negative way too...)
    EDIT: HAHA! How fun! (not..ghrmblk.) if I write ****ing here it is translated to alot oif stars instead of the word. lol, DAMN!

    Usually my comp gets treated like a human being - yelling @ it - Oh, You are not going to crash ... and so on, I also hit it when needed especially it's head ;) But name - not...

    Mine has to be a female. So delicate yet so powerful; beautiful yet so fearsome; charming when happy, lethal when angry.

    When she says no, its no. :(

    So complicated to our short male intellect our only responsability is to look out for her to make her happy so we can be happy (has to be a woman of sorts -too bad she doesn't kiss :o )

    Mine is neither gender,st a strange mix of aspects from the two I guess.

    It doesn't have a name, but if it did it would be something short and funny like bongo, or ping.

    My three compies are male (but very young). They have no name.
    They seem to be happy when i care for them. If they seem to have a bad day it's good to tell them, what i'm gonna do to them, if they refuse to work. Throw them out of the window. Get an axe. But it was never necessary.
    Eilonwys words: damned data ? and nice little cute PC :p
    Why don't translate?
    And Scheißkiste is faecalmatterbox, Drecksding dirtthing.
    I wouldn't give them such names they could be annoyed. :D

    Mine is male. That's obvious. It never works when it should and when I've got something else to do it pesters me. And it has to be booted a lot :p
