I come somewhere between the two. The wife tends to nag incessantly, and I simply switch into 'wife mode' where my brain actually filters most of what she is saying into unintelligble background noise with little or no effort on my part. |

I've got no significant other, but I do have a roomate - my brother. Technically I rent from him. So I pretty much have to have permission any time I want to bring something home. However, the garage is 100% full and I'd never get a machine up the stairs without his help. |

Believe or not, my wife bugged me about a 4 way joystick for eternity.....(I had 8 ways mounted)......All she wanted to play was ms. pac I installed a switchable 4/8 way from ultimarc and now everyone is happy! |

Aren't those t-sticks the coolest? I just got one. I love it. Maybe that's the deep secret to spousal harmony... t-sticks. |
