How Many Computers Are In Your Home?

Greenguy · 2003-09-15, 10:07 AM

I was just looking around at the number of computers that are in my house & remembering back to when I got the 1st one & everyone wanted to use it - LOL

So, stupid poll time - how many active & working computers do you have in your house? (the 3 old towers sitting in the corner do not count - LOL)

MrMaryLou · 2003-09-15, 10:13 AM

Too many LOL

stuveltje · 2003-09-15, 10:38 AM

I use 2 puters, and if i get the chanse(sorry jim, but english isnt my primary language, so i can get away with it

) i will take the one from my guy and kids to

cockNballs · 2003-09-15, 11:09 AM

I have 3

and I don't work from home (too much)

Surfn · 2003-09-15, 11:48 AM

I turn all my old puters into servers, if they count then I have over 10. My old laptops become storage devices something like portable HD's.

ozzieman · 2003-09-15, 12:16 PM

i have two loaded servers that i run from home, both doing hosting for friends and relatives and paying folks too, then I have my wifes Dell, and thats a really good burner for cds and dvds and then I hae my 350 dollar screemer that I just built, and thats my editor and program keeper, plus its a mail server as well, so Im pretty busy with that. and 2 old pentium 3 desktops that are just my personal network server clint machines for storage and file playing ( sometimes I host online games on them so I can play) I am getting 2 new servers pretty soon to add to my large network. So just for the purpose of this post I have 6 am adding 2 and want 10 more!

I have a 26 port client hookup for my little red box! Haha.

After I drop off my old G4 this week I'll be down to three, two Macs and one Win2K machine.

That is not counting the closet full of computers that aren't being used.

LilBiggz · 2003-09-15, 01:50 PM

I've only got 2 working.
4-5 in the garage...
1 on the kitchen table...
1 under my desk...
Damn sounds like I need to take a trip to the dump...

tiny · 2003-09-15, 02:20 PM

I've got 2 that run all the damn time and 2 for storeage,and thats 3 too many hahaha

Jim · 2003-09-15, 02:32 PM

I have 5 online...
And stuveltje, you should have ignored the "Pet Peeve"

It was only for people that "claim" English as a primary language

JanTM · 2003-09-15, 05:24 PM

Although I don't claim English as my primary language I still think the subject is highly relevant. Spelling like 5 year-old kids or simply writing nonsense will most likely have a negative effect on sales... but thats a totally different thread I think

So by all means... keep the English lessons coming

Extreme John · 2003-09-15, 08:39 PM

I take it easy at home, 2.... One for me to check mail, do some light work and the other for my wife to type with her loud ass nails and that my daughter plays games on also.

amber438 · 2003-09-15, 09:55 PM

with the new laptop we have 7 plus a dummy terminal in the bedroom..

Greenguy · 2003-09-16, 09:48 AM

I did forget to mention that I have 6 working in the house - my main one, my laptop, my spare (for Jim or MrMaryLou or other guests when they come to visit) The wife has one as do the 15 & 14 yo's

Extreme John · 2003-09-16, 10:23 AM

Good call Green Guy its the worst when:

1) Someone comes to visit and they suck the life out of your computer

or

2) You go some place and there's no computer for you to use at free will.

Greenguy · 2003-09-16, 11:35 AM

I have to bring my laptop to Jim's when I visit him

Chop Smith · 2003-09-16, 05:09 PM

Three active ones. Had fourteen until I closed down my software business after 20+ years.

Kath · 2003-09-16, 07:19 PM

We have 5 active...

Mine (still shiny & new....), my old one (now re-formatted and in the living room...), my son's PC, my daughter's PC and the laptop which I use often and on the road.

Plus... there are 4 in the garage collecting dust... or wait - they ARE dust... something like that. lol

ladydesigner · 2003-09-16, 11:46 PM

We have 3. One is my new Dell, one for my husband (but that I also store crap on) and one for the kids.

RawAlex · 2003-09-17, 12:09 AM

I live alone... I have 7 computers. 6 plus a laptop. Two of them are for video edits and production, the laptop is for travelling and roaming the house, one does nothing but accounting and such, and the rest are for web design, graphics, and other happy jobs.

Range from an ancient AMD 333 to a P4 2.8gig multithread (that does video, which requires a boatload of horsepower to do right, especially MPEG2 encoding for DVDs.
