And when you get bored with your computer, you can trade it in for the sexy new model. :p

In all seriousness, I'm looking at my new laptop and going "Meh" because it's hugely overkill. Might return it. :p

While I'm proud of making my computer virtually silent in part thanks to SPCR, the word "love" is waaaaaaaaaaaaaay too strong.

I do that with my Les Paul :D It just hangs there on the wall with it's sexy burst color...it calls to me. I have to tell it "b!tch...wait till I'm in the mood" to feel it up though, or I'd be on it all the time.

There are times when I look at it and think of how cool it is that everything works and that I assembled it, etc... but I have no platonic feelings for it lololol.

I did that when my old computer died. I stayed by it's side and told it about all the good times I had with it up until the end. He died so young. :(

Well Nuclear Ned doesn't know what he's talking about. I went out today, found a girl, and tried poking her in the area I thought would be most likely to turn her on, and said "I love you baby." It didn't work

I agree. I've had my computer for a while now, so I've gotten pretty used to it. But I just bought a new 20.1" LCD to replace my 19" CRT, and I say that it's beautiful at least once a day.
