Top Ten Reasons Why Computers Are Better Than Boy/Girlfriends


10. You can turn them off when you're done with them.

But they can also be difficult to turn on.


9. They never say, "You can't login tonight, I have a headache."

But GPF and GENERAL HARD DISK FAILURE have the same effect.


8. You can tell them anything, and they will always listen.

... and usually interpret it differently than you intended!


7. You can program them to give you the answers you want to hear.

... again, and again, and again until it gets boring...


6. They are never too tired.

unless there's a power outage.


5. If you come home at 3 AM, they don't ask where you've been.

"The number you are calling is not answering; please try later"


4. They don't hog the bed and steal all the covers.

But they do take all the desk space.


3. They don't eat (unless you count disks).

Granted.


2. They remember everything you want them to remember, and forget
everything you want them to forget.

"Error reading file DNTFRGT.TXT. Abort, Retry, Fail?"


1. They never complain that you don't take them anywhere.

"HARD DISK FULL"  "Connecting at 2400 Baud"  "Disk format unrecognizable"


So... they can be *JUST* as bad...!
