I don't really need more than two computers, but I personally have one main PC which I rapidly use and next to it an working Amiga 1200 for fun to enjoy, both connected to the network. My brother has one more PC and my another brother has a computer too, so that makes 4 computers
 If to count the ones which are not used (old or broken) so I could add three.. And I don't let to use my computer for anybody!

I have my laptop and an old Pentium II desktop that's not used anymore. Sister has a new Pentium IV PC that I built and brother and his girlfriend has a Dell laptop. I also have a iMac 700Mhz all-in-one machine in the closet. Only played around with it a couple of times

Wow, thats more than the amount of computers that I want, what would I do with all those computers??? But I personally have 2 computers, which is an Alienware computer and a Presario Laptop. I main use my laptop for general use as browsing and downloading, but the alienware is used for upscale things such as them overpowering games, and modeling programs and tasks which I need a bunch of programs open for a certain project that I need to work on.
Not to mention that my alienware computer is basically my entertainment system with a really nice size LCD monitor and speaker system, so yup 2 good computers is enough for me, any more computers and I dont know what use I could use for them but set up a network for party computer gaming? hahah. |

Wow, so many computers! I have predominantly used laptops for as long as I can remember. On the other hand, I just have one. When it gets old and replaced, I usually give it away. The lifetime of a laptop in my hands is usually two years, but my most current one has been with me for almost six years (yes, it is ancient). It is now so old and worn down (some letters are fading on the keyboard; my letter "n" has completely disappeared) that I may keep this one even when I upgrade to a new laptop. I would be embarrassed to insult someone else with this ancient relic. By that time, I will therefore increase my computer census to TWO!

I've got 3 AMD desktop Athlons XP that range from 1800 to 2600+, one Duron 1300+ (the one conected to internet 24/7), and about 20 old PCs (DELL) where they are some Celerons 266-333, PII 300-450 and 2 PIII 500. Besides i've got 2 old 486DX2 ready to be assembled and work, among other assembly motherboards, cards, and cases.
So why i've stored such amount of old pieces?, well, i'm electronic, and i like to play with those (and an old PC can be really useful for some tasks). Of course i'd love to sell some PC sets with a very low price. |
