Green on black is easy on the eyes. I used to rock an amber on black monitor on my ~~486/33~~ 486 DX 66 (I upgraded the CPU). It was full SCSI, coax networking, dial-up modem, and Red Hat (Halloween). The disc came with either a book or a magazine. It's been a minute.
I still have the machine in storage. Fully wrapped in cellophane.
EDIT: When I finally shut her down, her final uptime was a little over 2300 days. We were moving so down she went.
Stop gendering objects as female lol
It's gendered the same way in my native language
Which language? In the languages I know, computer is masculine.
Varies even within a language. El ordenador in Iberian Spanish, la computadora in Latin America.
in Italian, computer is masculine but GUI is feminine
Haha same but no
I think it's cute :3
Some languages (French is the most well known for this) don't have a neutral gender.
English has ;D
