O.K. first of all "computer people"? There are 4 "computer people" in my house. 2 are women, (my wife of 18 years) and my daughter, and 2 male (my son and I). My wife is 3 years younger than I (she's 36). I don't think I'm robbing the cradle here. I was not a "computer person" whan I married her in 1984. I'm very much a computer person now. My 15 year old daughter is a hottie, but very much a computer person. My 14 year old son doesn't have the system or programming skillz that my daughter has. My wife and her notebook p.c. with a wireless n/w card is a pretty damn savvy computer person.
I think your friend is the immature one here because she is drawing from a tired old stereotype.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
