proggR Posted August 10, 2009 Share Posted August 10, 2009 I'm not making this a poll although it probably would make sense. I just bought an HP Mini because it was about $80 cheaper than any other netbook just because it wad the floor model and I'm going to need a laptop for notes since I sold my old one. At anyrate this brings my computer count up to 4, not including dualboots. Does anyone else have a lot of computers or is it just me? I actually have uses for 3 of them and the 4th is still useful, I just haven't made plans for it since I stopped using it as a file server. Anyway. Just wanted to see who else holds on to or buys a lot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lamez Posted August 10, 2009 Share Posted August 10, 2009 Oh man. I have: 2 servers 1 Laptop 2 Desktops That is 5 total. That is just mine. In the entire house we have: 2 servers 2 laptops 3 desktops That is 7 total. And this does not include the ones I have set aside for spare parts, and experiments. I also am buying another laptop for my dad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nrg_alpha Posted August 10, 2009 Share Posted August 10, 2009 I have: one piece of crap laptop (which I currently use). an ever bigger piece of crap desktop which won't turn on (can't afford to get it looked at at the moment). Checkmate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trq Posted August 10, 2009 Share Posted August 10, 2009 I used to have a bunch but threw most of them out when we last moved. I use virtualization now instead, much quieter. Iv'e two desktops, a laptop and half a dozen vps's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KevinM1 Posted August 10, 2009 Share Posted August 10, 2009 I have two... really more like one and a half. Gateway desktop, which more than does the job. iBook laptop. Yeah, yeah, I know. It's an old G3 pos. It worked just fine for what I used it for - taking notes in college - but it's essentially a computerized typewriter. I'll be getting a new laptop this fall, though. Just waiting for Windows 7 to come out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

corbin Posted August 10, 2009 Share Posted August 10, 2009 Hrmm in my house there are 7, but only 3 of them are mine. (Of the 3, only 2 were made within the past 2 years haha.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ober Posted August 10, 2009 Share Posted August 10, 2009 2 desktops (I built mine, wife has an older gateway), personal laptop, and my work laptop. I've tossed 2 older desktops in the past year, as well as enough hardware to build at least 2 more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

proggR Posted August 10, 2009 Author Share Posted August 10, 2009 Haha. Good to hear. My four are: -a newish mac mini (my everyday computer) -an old compaq proliant 3000 server -an old powermac G3 which I haven't turned on in months -the new netbook for note taking since I can't read my writing I may sell the server though. I'll probably wait a while before I do if I do though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.josh Posted August 10, 2009 Share Posted August 10, 2009 If we are going to count computers owned that aren't in use, I have about a dozen or so old computers that technically work but they are very old and are just sitting in my garage collecting dust.
