    where you live:  Albuquerque, NM

    How many computers you have in your house:  I just got up to double check this....and it's embarrassing.  We have 5 PC's that the hubs has built over the past 5 years, 1 old HP laptop, 1 new-ish netbook and my new Mac...not including all the random parts, which he guesses could easily build at least one more PC.  All together, 8 functioning computers and 1 in pieces.

     

     

    Damn you Nest for screwing up my siggy!

    How many computers you have in your house:  Working or not working?  At the moment, I know we have at least 4 WORKING computers (My desk top, DH's two desk tops at this desk and a media PC next to the TV). Does DH's work Laptop count? That would make it 5.   However, we have MULTIPLE non working computers sitting around DH's desk that he's either fixing or rebuilding or just messing around with.   Sadly, we're also looking for a lap top for me (business related).

    How many computers you have in your house: A grand total of 4.  I have a laptop, dh has a laptop and a desk top (Annie, which he built) and we also run our own web/mail server(Wally which he also built). Yup, dh is a programmer...me, didn't have much of a clue about computer till he and I hooked up 3 1/2 yrs ago.  Now I understand more than I'd care to admit LOL.

  • We live in Norway.

    I believe at the moment we have 11 computers:  4 laptops, 4 towers, 1 Mac Mini, and 2 Sun SPARCstations.  However, we're moving into a smaller flat (from 1140 ft? down to 915) next week, so we're considering getting rid of the SPARCstations.  Unless we can figure out a way to turn them into some kind of furniture.

    1 laptop at home, plus another from work that comes home a lot... thinking about getting a netbook for our second home, but not sure how to go about finding a good one for that.
