I understand your wife completely. The most frustrating thing in the world for me, is to have something go wrong with my desktop or laptop. I can fix it...........IF i know what is wrong, or even where to go to find out whats wrong. My husband (who only plays games on his) can't understand why I don't know whats wrong.

I think its not knowing how to phrase the problem properly.

"Geeks" and 'people' speak different languages.
