I'm not actually afraid of computers themselves, because my laptop is my baby. But when the battery starts dying, the fan starts up, the CPU goes past 50%, the RAM goes past 30%, or an unfamilar window pops up, I get really nervous. Not quite a panic attack, but close.
Yesterday, I typed "wmic csproduct get name" in Windows search to find out what version my laptop is. A small blank window with a black screen popped up and disappeared really quickly, and I was still shaken an hour later. I don't know what that window was. I didn't like it. I was expecting one of those nice white-and-gray Windows Explorer windows (which I got when I typed in system information).
I'm also deathly afraid of error screens. When I was little, my uncle's computer got a blue screen of death, and now I can't even look at pictures of them online. And the other night, I had a nightmare that CPU was 100% and RAM was 80%, and then the screen started glowing like red hot!
Is there a name for this kind of fear?
