Get the computering mug.
An infernal machine everyone loves and is completely obsessed with. They can go from a junk cell phone to a Super Cray computer at the National Security Agency. Computers can really suck because of the failures of their manufacturers to create real products.
There are three types of Personal Computers (PCs):

1. The Windows machine which tends to crash when it is the absolutely worst time to crash, but is a great machine for the PC gamer.

2. The Apple computer comes in many varieties but is invariably the best for multimedia and graphics. While there are not very many good programs available for the Macintosh, those that are created are good. (Usually). An Apple running MacOS X is likely to be safe from most viruses, but isn't easily interchangable with other PCs.

3. The Linux box is perhaps the most secure machine on Earth and very cheap. Support and documentation is often very good. However, it is not for the faint of heart, as it requires hard work to set up and skill. It's open source, so most stuff is free, but many of the programs are amateurish.
I hate this stupid computer!!! I need a Cray! Why did I get Windows anyway?

\kem pyu'ter\ n : 1 one that computes; specif : an automatic electronic machine for performing calculations
2 a machine which computes, especially an electronic machine that solves complex mathematical problems in a very short time when given certain information. 3 one skilled in computing, or a thing that computes. 4 A machine that is used nowadays to store information, play games, do artwork, chat, listen to music, watch DVD's, surf the internet, burn CD's and DVD's, earn money, and most of all waste time.
For def. 1 : He is a computer, if you ask a question he will compute, and answer you the best he can ; The computer will calculate for you.

For def 2 : Computers the size the size of a matchbox that do the work of a packing case full of normal elextronic equipment. ; The computer will answer your math{ematical} problems, so long that you insert the data correctly.

For def 3 : {She} will compute your every move in a chess game and may possibly be able to compute your next move.

For def 4 : I love computers, they entertain me, but then again they freakin piss me off because of the damn errors it gives me from a game that the computer can't handle. Especially because it is no where near the speed of a human brain.

a machine that is really cool if it's new. It has access to internet and all that good stuff. a machine that can also cause a lot of anger if the hard drive is loaded because it will go really slow.
A New Computer:
-Hey, i just got the "Windows XP HP Infinity"
-Sweet!
-yeah, it works with the best computer games and never slows down!

An OLD COMPUTER/a computer with a LOADED HARD DRIVE
-hey, guess what, i installed Itunes, limewire and all that good stuff on my computer!
-sweet! let me try it out
-alright hold on i gotta click on it twice
-alright!
-AAH! (incomprehensible swearing) this dam piece of Sh!t! (destroys the computer and smashes it into a billion pieces.)

Something really smart assy and pompus you say to someone who is not understanding the most simple thing. They are just too dumb to get it. So you talk to them like a dumb robot seeing if they have blew a fuse...

A piece of crap that always fuckin shuts down on you every fuckin time you are trying to work on it, put on some music, play games, etc. Often associated with the blue screen of death.
I fuckin hate this computer. I'll reboot you! (Kicks it up into the air with my boot on.)
