Comments on: New TV show: Temptation gadget island

Playboy TV's Gadget or the Girl will make contestants choose between a weekend getaway with a girl of his choice or a surprise high-tech toy.

Meh - as a married geek, I'll take the gadgets, thx.

Yeah, geeks that are married or who have girlfriends really have an unfair advantage, I would say. Plus, if you were on that show, you'd be able to tell if the girl you had to pick at the end was into you or not, and if she really wasn't, there's no reason to spend an awkward weekend with her, just pick the gadget!

[Haysoos]

Please, I'll take the 60" plasma. The hot girl is a lot easier to get on my own... for a weekend anyways. :D I think the nerd thing to do would be go for the hot chick, since nerds would see that as less attainable.

I also think that the desperate thing to do would be to pick the girl. If you need to have a TV show introduce you to women then you have problems. Plus, they're not into you, their just playing the game. Those people that choose the girl probably also think that strippers are girls trying to put themselves through college and are actually interested in you.

Take the 60" plasma. Sell it. Take the money, hire two hookers. Keep the change. Done.

I love scheduling romantic evening with my smoking hot girlfriend on my iphone while playing xbox live on on my 40'' 1080p LCD TV. It's good to not have to chose. :p

[extirpator]

I'm with every one else.. the gadgets win in this circumstance. That being said, this reminds me on the one girl I had been going out with for close to three months when she dropped an ultimatum that I had to choose between computers and her... To clarify she wanted me to stop using computers FOREVER... Seeing as I've a degree in electronics, and work in a computer animation studio... I smiled at her and told her I hoped she'd have a good life. She seemed appalled at my decision, but imo hte request was ludicrous in the first place.

believe me even my little dam 6630 will be more faithful to me than a girlfriend that won't love me. every time I drop my 6630 of course nokia It keeps working keep loving me and never disappoint me . as a girl would do that 10 times at 1 year huh

[Frank Rizzo]

The big question is, will she put out?

[RagingHamster]

But can the girl run Windows Mojave?

[albertech842]

Wow, this was so easy since...
1. I'm a total Geek
2. I'm focusing on school so I don't need heartbreak before a midterm
3. I'm gay

[lefty.crupps]

What a poor poll, the iPhone is the nearest thing to a 'gadget' on that list, and being closed means I can't really do much with it. Any geek would choose the girl over those options, since none are really modifiable -- the girl would give the most frustration and require the most thought to understand. That is the geek way.
