Neither. They're machines, they don't have a gender :D

And if you're not happy, you can always fit a gender changer. :-D

Also, "Amiga" ends in an 'a'

Objectifying women, are we? A woman is a female human being, not an object. :P

Post by: gertsy on May 01, 2015, 09:01:41 AM: Well results are in. Most people think of the Amiga as female. Less than 10% think of her as male. To those guys I suggest you have a good hard look at yourselves. Potentially needing to question your own masculinity and possibly your sexuality. Not that there's anything wrong with that.

Now if I can just get this bra to fit over my 2000's case......

Post by: amigappc on May 02, 2015, 06:57:00 PM: @mcbone is correct. I think "she" by all means.

Post by: Templario on May 02, 2015, 08:00:38 PM: In Mexico? excuse the Amiga word is a castilian word-spanish word, and the word is not a girlfriend because in castilian we have another word more correct for this Novia, Amiga is more friend but the female word of Amigo.
Title: The Amiga Computers Male OR Female.
Post by: danbeaver on May 02, 2015, 11:20:29 PM: As noted in the re-counted histories of the Amiga, it was Portuguese a female friend.

Post by: Nosferax on May 03, 2015, 01:37:28 PM: It can't be female!

It does everything I tell it to do, and never complains about me playing games all day :-)

Post by: pVC on May 04, 2015, 11:01:15 AM: Erm.. WTF is this now :) Hasn't everyone always known since the beginning that Amiga means female friend, and it's even been written all over the Amiga magazines, articles, comics, animations, net forums, bbs'es, demos and everywhere during all the years to remind and build the image of Amiga computers being "girl friends"... how could we think it as a male now after the eternal brainwashing? It damn isn't Amigo at least. Or is this about some modern gender-neutral bla bla now? :P
