Well, as long as I'm able to run all the programs I need to without ANY problems
HAL9000
no, on second thoughts better make it the female version - SAL9000
something that will never need updates (hence, not windows). I chose mac.
the main problem with choosing windows is that we need to be able to reinstall periodically. If that's an option I have no problem with that. Otherwise I would need to go with linux.
atari 2600 sounds appealing

I have to say I could not imagine living the rest of my life locked in a room, with an unlimited supply of food (must be a pretty big room), and a computer. Such a life, still very unfulfilling, would improve with human companionship, preferably of the opposite sex. (Sorry, I had to analyze it. ) Other than that, I'd go with some high, high end supercomputer so that it does not become obsolete in the next eighty or so years (not that that would be matter if I had no communication with the outside world).
OK you get one female, but she's mute (the best kind).

Look whos coming to dinner!
You need to go back to when everyone used to like comps.
You would need a speccy 48k, WITH rubber keyboard-none of the amstrad later ones.
All the games were original and playable to death.
Speccy, a mute girl, unlimited stella and food. Hmmmmm
Such is life.

To be honest i'd take my old computer, my 500mhz P3 dell with winxp and 512mb ram....
You can't kill that thing lol.
I'd go for a 486-33 with Ultima Underworld.
I think the idea on taking a woman is dangerous - what if she feels neglected and destroys the computer?
