For Fun?!
Well I mix business and pleasure on a works PC, from 8am til 1pm, then from 2pm til 5pm!
Then in the evenings! It is hard to put an exact time on it, because machine is on 24/7 plus it is situated in our front family room, so it just used at will throughout the day!
Hmmm, before computers? Well, got a Spectrum in 1984 when I was 12 :chin: and pretty much been on computers ever since!!!
As for what we did before they ruled our life so much, no idea - maybe we spoke to each other? :spin:

I don't think I need to answer this question
Well I spend pretty much all of my working day on here, and I check randomly at night.

Ohh go on, we would all like to know

"my computer says im not at liberty to answer that question
" Why can't you answer this question? is it because you are like Dave, on it from dawn till......No, on it all the time he is awake
When im at home, the computer is the first thing thats switched on. Likewise when i wake up. so id say im ruled. GF has threatened to throw it out the window on many occasions
Put it like this, when my alarm goes at 7:45 I lift my arm and switch my laptop on (stored on the floor).
When I go to sleep I leave it on with ricky gervais radio shows. It's the first and last thing I use every day and is used far too much during the day. I chose NOT to take it to uni (some people do) so that it has less chance to rule my life.

I work on a computer but I wouldn't say it's for entertainment! Yes I can do my job without it but the computer makes it far far easier and safer. I spend a lot of time on the home PC for pleasure in the evenings and always have my fancy phone with me with internet access

My PC is on 24/7 as i run a server on it, i get up, check my email, go to college, do my thing (pcs), get out, go to work at a pc repair shop, get home, go on msn, play a few games, go to bed, so yeah pretty much my life is pcs.
during week i spend 8 hours a day at work on a pc then get home 10 hours till early hours on my pc at weekends i spend about 14 hours on my pc a day
erm me and H had a disagreement last night as he came to bed at 3.20 this morning - last seen on the laptop
Well nearly all the time during the day I can't access the forum cos I'm pretending to work.
At night I'd say around two hours but recently I have found a new way of passing the time, Television! In Colour! LOL So that has taken two and a half hours tonight where I would likely be on here.

I have no TV here at uni...cba paying the licence fee.
Plus it enables me to spend more time working.
Whenever Im not at uni working (very often), at uni on other business (dancing or dive club business), sleeping or at work, Im on it...how can I forget being in the pub! tsk!! That too.... Oh and when Im at home I usually have the 1242 to fettle or people to drink with .. Id say its around the working day at desk time really, plus the evening unless otherwise engaged...

i spend about 4-5 hours a day on the comp , the rest of the day is taken up by sleep
before the comp i went out

I spend from about 8am until 5pm in work on a PC. In the evenings its not worth bothering with at my mums they have a 56k modem, and at my flat i only have my laptop which is old very old and only has a 28.8k modem
