A girl's best friend? Plasma TV

Next time you want to win your girlfriend over after a lover's tiff, buy her a plasma television instead of a diamond necklace.

According to a new study in the US, three in four women would prefer a new plasma television to a diamond necklace.

The study, conducted by Oxygen Network, a cable TV company owned and operated by women, found that women owned on average 6.6 technology devices as opposed to 6.9 devices by men. The survey, aptly titled Girls Gone Wired, also found that 46 per cent of women did their own computer trouble-shooting.
