Some women say computers should be referred to in the
masculine gender because:

   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 to solve
   problems, but half the time, they ARE the problem.

   4. As soon as you commit to one, you realize that
   if you had waited a little longer you could have
   had a better model.

Some men say computers should be addressed in the
feminine gender because:

   1. No one but their creator understands their
   internal logic.

   2. The native language that they use to
   communicate with other computers is
   incomprehensible to everyone else.

   3. Even your smallest mistakes are stored in their
   long-term memory for later retrieval.

   4. As soon as you make a commitment to one, you
   find yourself spending half of your paycheck on
   accessories for it.
