What are your thoughts? My GrandMother is totaly scared of computers. She thinks they are a tool of the Devil. Really, no joke.

Try to keep intel/amd flames out of the thread so this doesn't get locked.

I see scary computers. They are everywhere. You know what scares me the most? They don't know they are scary.

Computers anger my grandma. During thanks giving out of nowhere she said, "I don't know why there's an internet"

Hahahah. My grandparents hate computers because my brother spends his life playing Star Wars Galaxies day and night. He has no life. They just think its another toy.

Because whether you admit it or not, computers are the most feared machines in this country. In the media, computers are disproportionately shown as criminals as compared to other machines. And it seems like alot of computers embrace that thug kind of idea in techno music. I think everyone wants to believe that they don't have any stereotypes in their heads but really, they do. Even that one computer leader says he gets nervous when he's walking down a street and he sees a teenage computer walking behind him. Just write about the topic and lets get some debate going instead of just trying to attack me personally.
