gaybook

Any portable computer being carried by a man, that would clearly look better when carried by a woman. The early Apple iBooks and Newton eMate are excellent examples, as they tend to look more like colourful fashion accessories.

Howard's masculine exterior was spoiled only by the fact that he was writing a report on his Gaybook.

d5

An excellent digital 'linear' synthesizer from the late eighties, made by Roland. Less expensive than the D10 and D15 because it has less memory and no sequencer built in. Produces very nice phat bass and leads, although the piano and guitar patches suck.

Value of a used D5 is about a hundred dollars.
