[Xenocide]

wow im sorry to hear that.

</flame>

:D

[Sucka]

rofl...

I'm ussually screaming at my computer, lots of hate between us :p

[>HyperlogiK<]

Love hate relationship here, but yeah a bit. Partly cos I bought a special keyboard which takes a while to type on, but you get much better ppm if you do (no one else can use my computer easily, and I take a couple of mins to type properly on other peoples)

[Wicked Klown]

Yea I have the love thing going for my rig. After all the money I put in to it and the time, how could you not love it. Also I hate when people use my rig.

[CPUonNO2]

At the risk of sounding like the biggest dork on earth, I would describe my relationship with my computer like that between "Han Solo" and "The Millenium Falcon". It's actually not that uncommon, I get like this with cars and anything else I build and maintain with my own two hands. Matter of fact, I was just watching a show the other day on WWII planes, and they were talking about how the pilots would grow fond of one particular plane, and they would almost be cuthroat about it when someone else flew it.

I am the only user on my computer and I just lock it even when I am going to the bathroom. Whoever touches it is up for an ass kicking. Although its starting to play games now and I am hating it.

[Sucka]

I just lock it even when I am going to the bathroom. Whoever touches it is up for an ass kicking.

How many people do you live with where you need to lock the PC for a bathroom break?!?!

[tenchi86]

I deffintaly cannot work on other PCs as well. I have my pc set up perfetcly for me. Right when my pc starts so does Internet and Winamp. All my icons are in perfect spot. I go to my school and I am like why this pc sucks. I dont hav a bond where it wotn screw up on me. I definatly screws up on me. Though we have been through a lot togather which will make me sad when it goes.

[Mud]

get a girlfriend...

:D

i do have 1..

but who will i pick if i had to choose one of em?? :D

[Tebore]

I have that feeling, not to that extent but something like it. I can't work on someone else's computer as efficiently as if I were on my own. It's not set up to my liking and usually other people's computers have lots of junk that slow it down, not to mention they are like 1.4 P4s and 800mhz P3s with 128megs of RAM struggling with XP.

I've got nothing but respect for my computer. If I push it too far it'll let me know. I keep inching it up on the overclock, if it doesn't want to go higher it'll just go and lay down, but if I overclock it with respect and go slow it'll keep asking for more. I guess you just have to respect your equipment when you overclock. Anyone else have that kind of attitude towards overclocking?

[tenchi86]

Yes there is another thing. My pc is a old 868 p3 but I was just over at my friends hows his pc is something like 2.3 ghz and it can barley run security apps with winamp, firefox, and photoshop at once. I never have lag on mine. Oh and if you must choose go with the pc it will never leave you.

[rebelwarlock]

if you give your computer a name...and you build it yourself...of course you're going to be attached to it

and yes, i'm very attached to cobalt

[sandman001]

Not beyond the fact that I resent it for taking up all my damn time.

[ozzlo]

i'm very attached to vanguard... and I hope to spend many years modding together....

nobody can use my comp but me... it's not that I don't let them it's that the comp rejects them and acts slow but it seems that when I'm on that I get a sense that my comp is trying to impress me...

I know that there will come a time when the comps outdated and I will have to build another but I always find good homes for my computers...

[dark_15]

if you give your computer a name...and you build it yourself...of course you're going to be attached to it

*Looks at Avatar*

If that is not you, I think you may have some competition for your cobalt...

[tenchi86]

I have also noticed when I am not on my pc it messes up a lot. Something as simple as typing something. It will look fine in abi and print all funky. This never happens when I am on.

[squasher]

i have the love/hate with mine
i hate her when she is being a pain in the ass, i tend to curse at her (yes its a women and so are ships and planes dont hate) saying things like "RENDER FASTER GODDAMN IT!!!!!"
i love her when she is being extra good, like going nice and fast and staying cool
and i hate seing other people use my computer, it makes me angry, so i hover and they go away
and i love her double when i use another comp and its slow

EDIT:
to^^^ that happens to me too, things somehow magicaly fix themselves when i type and not my family, i really dont know why but it rox :attn:

[Zulu-1]

sometimes i feel sorry for my pc... because of all the evil things i do to it
but right now... im depresses, cause my mom stole my monitor :cry:

[Sentential]

rofl...

I'm ussually screaming at my computer, lots of hate between us :p
Yep, infact im selling mine into slavery in a day or so.

[musawi]

Sucka on thursdays all my family come to my home and they bring their little annoying 5 year old cousins. I lock it because of my bro as well. They start to read my msn conversations. V. Annoying.

[apu318]

I love my computer so much that I make it check the fingerprint of whoever's using it :o

[musawi]

Lol.. that would actually be really cool

[threeme2189]

there is such a thing on ubernew aka expensive laptops i think...
i luv my pc (like a han solo-milenium falcon thing) and i dont like it when my brothers use it grrrrr...
i need to start locking my pc how exactly do YOU guys go about locking pc's?

[squasher]

on the front of mine, you can lock the cover, so nobody can touch the power button

[SewerBeing]

I love my pc, infact I love it so much no one else can use it even if they tried :) No one in my family can use my computer which absolutely rocks.

[threeme2189]

ohh.hardware lock...well i was thinking more along the lines of software or a password?
but not the windows logon user thingy cause it sux...anybody got any ideas?

[zexmarquies01]

If you have the DFI lanparty B mobo, like i do. there is a power and reset switch built on the mobo.

just unhook the power button from the mobo ( thats attached to the case )

bam. if they don't know about that secret switch, they can't use it.

or. just unhook the power switch from the mobo, when you leave the computer. then, hook it back up when you get home.

...or lock your door...whichever works.

[rebelwarlock]

*Looks at Avatar*

If that is not you, I think you may have some competition for your cobalt...

that would be my gf....geek girls are fun

oh and be on the lookout for my first mod...coming soon. no more hints except we'll be working together on it :D

[CrystalMethod]

Every night I... Oh wait, I missed the "with" in the title... Ummmm.... ignore that first part... :D

I treat all my systems like pets. They all have names, and every once in a while they act up like spoiled children. Don't take long to get them know when I won't put up with their poop. But, I love them all.

[furiousfords89]

i treat my two rigs like they are my children....even though my second rig is outdated..but it still has a place in my heart and its my main comp :p

[threeme2189]

u guys are weird...

[ghettocomp]

:p My computer even knows me by touch...
:D

my imac awakes from sleep mode if i enter the room...

sometimes it's creepy

[Ascii2]

u know that ur pc wont let u down when u need it.The PC would let one down when it is needed unless something worse may occur if it functions; Murphy's Law would not have it any other way.

[filip04]

How many people do you live with where you need to lock the PC for a bathroom break?!?!

first of all.. i also lock mine to go to the bathroom...

as far as girlfriends go, when i was younger (17), i lost one to my computer. she felt inferior to it. now, my current gf gets a lot more attention than my computer...

afterall, a computer can't keep you warm during the night
(well, except if you are running presshot)
but, it can't keep you company for the rest of your life
(AI gets old quickly)

realize the priorities in your life... gf's first

[PhoenixMDM]

I'm in love with my portacomp. I tried proposing to it, but I think it's a bit shy. It just stared at me from it's pseudo-briefcase home. It revved it's cdrom at me later that night and I got the hint...

Let's just say no matter what, my computer will always love my 3.5" floppy :p

[NsOmNiA91130]

my imac awakes from sleep mode if i enter the room...

sometimes it's creepy

My mouse slowly creeps toward the home folder every time I leave it.


And my TV spontaneously shuts off at night. It's freaky. o_O

[Quailane]

The relationship I have with my computer is about as special as the relationship I have with a pencil or pen I use at school. Only difference is I will get a lot more ****ed off if I lose the computer rather than the pencil.
