“Ironically, this thread is probably the reason there aren't many women on this forum. Maybe we need a thread entitled "The Surplus of Males", so we end up offending some males, and even out the sexes not by adding women, but causing men to leave.”

So I’m just playing guys. I don’t want you to go away. I want there to be lots more of everyone on this board – geeky guys and geeky girls are welcome!

Come on Geek girls, where is your voice? Stop lurkin and post. :)

Girls always get a bad rep when it comes to being geeky. Guys think that no girl loves computers as much as they do. That's just not true! The reason it might seem that way is that girls know how to keep things *balanced*. We know how to love computers and love other stuff too!

[Jupac]

I think we should keep this in one thread. Must not anger Rizzo ^^

As ray said one time:


Geek? GEEK? I RESEMBLE THAT WORD.

steelersfan88 is a girl, and im pretty sure lavalamp is too

[pyro]

And I'm pretty sure you're wrong on both counts. ;)

[96turnerri]

well i know im wrong on one account, i was just messing with Dave, but as for steelers i am not sure

[Charles]

How about eunuchs? Are there any eunuchs programmers here?

[MstrBob]

There may be a lack of Testosterone in these forums, but even so, that's just wrong. And painful when I think about it...

[PeOfEo]

steelers was a guy using a girl's name

[hooloovoo24]

IMHO (because you all care deeply, don't you?)

Pink is a universal color. It is loved by (real) men and girls alike, punks and preps, etc. etc. etc. It's my favorite color. (No, not blue...)

[BeachSide]

Pink is the hottest thing in the Lexington, KY area for all the guys!:eek: Apparently things such as pink Air Force Ones (shoes) are where it's at

a comment like that dave trying to prove your machoism, doesnt really go in your favour, its like people who brag about the ammount of action they get in the bedroom.

[David Harrison]

Take your girly 9200SE and leave, this thread is for REAL men with REAL graphics cards, like the 6800 ULTRA!

[96turnerri]

well some would say you are making up for something with that graphics card

plus im not a graphics whore like you

EDIT: nice latencys on your RAM there :p

[theuedimaster]

Correction: Graphic Pimp, not Graphic Whore.

[96turnerri]

depends how you look at it i suppose i would personally call dave a whore, but a pimp would suffice, anywayz how come not talking to me on MSN davey boy

[David Harrison]

I downclocked the CPU again and put the RAM back down to 5-3-3, I tried 4-3-3 but no matter what voltage it kept having random errors which cause windows to crash (what? I need windows for my games! I have Linux as well).

No point in leaving the CPU overclocked, it'll only break sooner and it can currently crush any game that I can throw at it for the moment.

Btw, hell yeah I'm a graphics whore and/or pimp, I got 5508 on 3DMark05 (with everything overclocked obviously). What did you get? :p

[hooloovoo24]

wow did this thread run off topic. I guess the subject says it all...

[MstrBob]

Tis the nature of this forum. It's rare that a coffee lounge thread stay on topic...

[strado123]

I am yet to find any statistics that tell us who are the producers of the web (the web designers). There are a lot of stats on the male/female ratio of users but I've found nothing on who is actually putting up the content (websites)... or is there?

At a guess there are more male web designers than women... but there must be some stats out there??

If anyone can help please email me: g.stradling@e-fire.co.uk
…or send an email to tell me you put up a post..

Thanks Guy.

I think geek girls are Cool.... i like the glasses most of all........ and they are usually petite with little hands that can access stuff in my computer my big 'meat hooks' can't..
Thats a huge bonus when swapping Ram or cards of somesort....... I have big hands that can't fit in :(

[96turnerri]

secretarial girls are the best, little black suits and glasses
