  Men. They are very powerful pieces of equipment, but useless if you don't tell them exactly what to do.

  They are male because they are so damn slow and never work the way they are supposed to.

  They could be men 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 solve your problems, but half the time they cause 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

  But they could be female because of

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

  2. The native 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 retrieval.

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

  How about if they're female? Once you "buy" them, you realize that the accessories are going to cost as much as the computer and the accessories constantly must be upgraded for the computer to be useful.

  Rats! Loosie beat me to it!!

  They are female because:

  1. They are expensive.
  2. They don't turn on as fast as I'd like them to.
  3. They nag me all day long.
  4. They always want more peripherals to get a job done.
  5. Their errors are often incomprehensible.
  6. They spy on my online activities.
  7. They can't do anything without explicit instructions.
  8. They remember every mistake I make.

  They are female.

  They operate on logic instead of emotion, unlike men.
