 18.  The computer doesn't ask you twice or more a day if you love him.
 17.  The computer doesn't spend hundreds of dollars on hardware on
      its own.
 16.  The computer doesn't think it can.
 15.  They're heavily dependent on external tools and equipment.
 14.  They periodically cut you off right when you think you've 
      established a network connection.
 13.  They'll usually do what you ask them to do, but they won't do more
      than they have to and they won't think of it on their own.
 12.  They're typically obsolete within five years and need to be traded
      in for a new model. Some users, however, feel they've already
      invested so much in the damn machine that they're compelled to
      remain with an underpowered system.
 11.  They get hot when you turn them on, and that's the only time you
      have their attention.
 10.  They have a lot of data but are still clueless.
  9.  A better model is always just around the corner.
  8.  They look nice and shiny until you bring them home.
  7.  It is always necessary to have a backup.
  6.  They'll do whatever you say if you push the right buttons.
  5.  The best part of having either one is the games you can play.
  4.  In order to get their attention, you have to turn them on.
  3.  The lights are on but nobody's home.
  2.  Big power surges knock them out for the night.
  1.  Size does matter.
