no, I just got myself a great girlfriend, what kinda reaction have you folks gotten from partners when you announce your addiction?
confusing to work on a relationship out side of a Lian Li, ain't it... ;-(

Well, my ex was pretty impressed with my computer consulting business actually. She always got all giggly and whatnot when I got a call from a client when we were out. That was more her being impressed with power and maturity or some BS like that though...I doubt she cared that it was because I'm a computer nut.

My wife is proud of my computer hobby. She thinks it's cool that I can put together computers and such. She doesn't mind the 24/7 tech support either.

Heh.. you would have no chance. You are "the guy who can fix her computer"; the exact opposite of potential b/f material.

It's so true. I think I need to act like a dumba$$ when it comes to computer...seems like it turns the girls on.
