i think it's silly to assume that because women/girls are not as obsessed with games as boys that they "run away from.... technology in general."
that's just WRONG!
i somesome play solitaire (esp in linux), but generally i am bored with games because they aren't intellectually stimulating.
that's why i love image processing so much. it's fun AND stimulating. a real puzzle!
basically, they have to invent better games for ladies. that's all.
and women use computers and technology when it helps them do something they want to do. it really isn't a big mystery.
