I tried the “get the girlfriend interesting in computers” trick and it worked… I ended up playing a lot of multiplayer Diablo as a Paladin, while she was an archer Amazon. That meant I got to wade into the melee and get pounded while she stood back safely and fired arrows into the mix. Even in computer games I get the dirty jobs! Also popular was sneaking up behind me in Half Life with a crowbar… She never did go for single player games, but as I have a LAN at home, the multiplayer option worked out pretty well for us. Shame the relationship didn’t work out as well. The new one is a journalist and thinks computers are for working, so I have to start the enlightenment process all over again.
