Gadgets a Guy thing? that was the case years back! Guys own the latest, high technological gadgets.
Things never the same now! Everything is changed!
If we walk back into old history, it says, change is not easy but, recent history says change easy! Girls also started buying more advanced gadgets as Guys does, but still long way to go for them!
Let me come into the topic
Months back my friend and I wanted to buy a new smartphone. We were arguing about the best phone in the market, pros, cons, reviews, opinion from friends and all sort of things.
I was not worried about the design, it doesn’t matter for me, if its thick or thin, the important criteria for me is performance, I wanted a phone with minimum 1Ghz processor, 5m pixel cam, touchscreen, good earphones, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, latest OS and so on.
My friend was in her own world! her specification is extremely conflicting to mine! she wanted a stylish phone, didn’t worried about processor, cam features, all she wanted is an attractive phone that grabs everyone’s attraction!
Finally we decided and bought our phone of choice, we are happy with what we have opted for!
I got an HTC Desire and she went for the all time favourite iphone -3GS!
It clearly explains, selecting and owning gadgets has lot to do with our personality, character and more than that. I am an Hardware Engineer by profession that triggers my gadgets selection. Most of my friends know the kind of gadgets I am interested on, and all my gifts are handpicked, according to what I will expect from that gadget.
My dad gifted me a Dell Inspiron 1525 in 2008, while I decided to do my Masters in abroad, I am still using it and loving it! I received a free, Windows 7 ultimate OS from Microsoft for part of Windows 7 beta testing! I really love to spend most of my time with my laptop, browsing, blogging, watching movies, playing games. Windows 7 + IE 9 +office 2010 really rocks! You should try it guys. For more Dell laptops please visit Dell page. I am looking to upgrade to another Dell i3 processor laptop.
I also received a Microsoft, wireless, blue track technology mouse as my birthday gift. It's amazing and it is exactly doing as said in the description.
As mentioned above, whenever I wanted to buy a gadget I look for latest technical advancements in the market, that is me, I have closely observed lot of other people buying gadgets, everyone's option is completely different, everyone has their own choice and options.
During my college days, I used to advice desktop configuration for my friends, apart from budget, the way I recommend depends on the person itself, not only me, if we visit to any PC shops, the way the sales guy recommends a product will be based on who we are, its mainly on what we ask for and that will dictate who we are!
I am so picky in selecting my gadgets, spends lot of time, reads lot of reviews, visit shops to get a hands on feeling before buying one.
My friend is gifting me a Nikon D5100 very soon! its a gift! I came to know to know about my gift recently! I am so excited! It is a very good cam, enriched with features. Its the proof how my gadgets represent me and how I express myself with the gadget choice!
The final words before I finish! Always, Live as who you are! it makes make the world moving!
Guys, please pour your valuable comments, it is highly appreciated!
Thanks

Usually I dont put stuff up on comments but what the hell, right?
One of the former employee of a motherboard company said that they usually have unpublicised meets in college students, taking care of questions regards to performance and overclocking. So we're talking about stuff like that.
He said that guys usually bring up cliche'd comments like "Do you think it will blow?" or "Oh no! it will consume power" and they used to be like "hmm..the usual!!".
Out of nowhere 3-5 raised their hands and they asked awesome questions: Base clocks, clock speeds, latencies, VDRAM and voltage configuration- the real stuff what overclockers usually guys and that surprised everyone- even the guys. Those girls were from Comm. background. He had to say "You girls rock!" and its respect.
I don't think gadgets was a man thing in the first place. It taken "some time" but if you see the purchasing habits and all, girls make the same choices, if not better.
Hi Mate,
Nice comment and very interesting example. I believe the proportion of the techie girls is very less, it was negligible compared with the boys proportion, I have accept the fact it is changing rapidly.
I would be really surprised if those 3-5 girls are working in hardware field!
Thanks for thought and for your vote!
The way I see things, quality matter way more than numbers. When that guy said "Someone on that meet-up asked me Do you Intel will burn?" he was ROFL and replied as if he asked if Intel will shut down :P. We all know this would happen atleast starting from our timeline. How much and where/which field/social status/type of tech enthusiasts is something which is not known. I write pc/notebook hardware reviews and usually people I encounter are girls. Do bear in mind, I am not including PR and Marketing.
Quality always matter than Quantity, Point taken. Thanks for your comment.
I am reading your reviews very impressive, again Thanks for your comments.
