lol that sounds like me ... a quick count...

me = 3 laptops
wife = 2 laptops
kids = 3 laptops (1 each)
Dining room = 1 desktop PC
Living room = 1 media centre PC
Converted garage = 1 desktop PC, 1 server (used for CCTV)
My bedroom = 1 media centre PC
Loft = 4 "spare" desktop PCs

So that's .... 17 computers. My god, what would I have done with my life if I were born 20 years earlier ... !!!

That doesn't include the xbox 360, the two PS3s, the two PS2s, the Wii ... and also, my job is an IT manager, so I am surrounded by computers at work as well.

so in the design field like me then and do alot of freelance work and renderings.
na I just the all computers for facebook, forum and online games only

why do you have so many 1 media centre PC, no need.
I have 1 and share to all 6 TV. In HK there is a box that you can contro the computer from any were in the house.
for spare computers I have 15 of them now which I will give awzy free to schools.

Pinguhk, I had you pegged as a Linux user (going by your avatar...)

I have dabbled with Mandrake over the years and more recently Ubuntu. I'm getting a bit impatient these days and got a bit ticked off when the version of Ubuntu I was playing with refused to play with dual monitors.

Hey Russ - no Pocket PC?!

no way Linux dose not suport 3 LCD and Adode softwere which I use every day.
I hate MS but cant live without them now
