I use my PC for mostly programming. At night and when I don't use my computer It participate in projects like Seti@Home and MoneyBee (http://uk.moneybee.com). Sometimes I watch DVDs on my computer and serch the WEB.
I use computer for two main things Gaming Internet
Computer without games is no good. I love playing any game i like action tilles alot. I also use it for internet since it is great place to be to play games, chat ,roam around , download stuff and a lot more I love games and internet both.
After being around computers 8 hours a day in the office as the techy guru, I come home and don't want to deal with it. That is why I have a Mac Mini at home. All I use it for is to check email.
I also maintain a website for local ice hockey goalies so we can sign up for drop in times at the various Ice Rinks. We were having either one goalie show up or ten. You only need 2, but having 3 or 4 is nice because you can rotate in and out.
I do own a PS2 for games and even then I don't play nearly as much as I did in college a few years ago.
I also use it mostly for pretty typical things such as gaming, video and image editting just for my own projects and stuff, website building hehe that's why I'm here, and just the necessities to keep my life under control like email, banking, ebay, etc.
Huh..This is why I love computer - IT CAN BE USED FOR ANYTHING! Mostly I use it to browse the net, I produce music so this is one of the major time consumers in my life I listen to music all the time when i am not producing it so I think I can put MUSIC on the first place...
Other than that I use it to chat with MSN with my friends, make websites, store my digital photos, do work for sql...
I think the list would be much shorter if i told you the things yoiu cannot do with this machine
I have a computer for getiing news and playing games (since my ps2 broke ) and mostly for talking to people that are close to me. What do you guys use yours for?
I use my computer for EVERYTHING.
To start off: Programming. I write everything. There is no program on my computer that i did not write. that includes the programing languors, to micro word, to mspaint, to ftp. I play games, I post on forums, I do work.
In truth, I don't know what i would do without a computer!!!!!
That computers can actually support boredness. that when im searching the web or trying to do
something to spend time, sometimes i get so bored i am about to hit myself in my face. it feels like
i have used the computer so much that i have found out everything i need to know and dont need it
anymore. besides scripting my webpage, i dont really need a computer, but i have an urge to buy a
mac. so now im just plain bored...and i have problems with my pc...it would just help if i could get
a completely customized computer that has everything tuned to my needs including the ....
You dont know how lucky you have it nowadays, this is a brief look at the computers that got me
where I am today... First up, & probably the first sight of a computer for people my age & older
is the Commodore Pet. A dire machine, which inhabited pretty much every school in the country.
CPU Speed: 1mhz Ram: 16k Rom: 20k Price: £775 Thankfully this was replaced in schools by the
BBCB, which at the time rocked because it had colour output not black & green. It didnt use
cassettes either, we used the fantastically dire floppy disks. These were the original 5....
Error: QUOTE "Fatal error: the system has become unstable or is busy," it says. "Enter to
return to Windows or press Control-Alt-Delete to restart your computer. If you do this you will lose
any unsaved information in all open applications." You have just been struck by the Blue Screen of
Death. Anyone who uses Mcft Windows will be familiar with this. What can you do? More importantly,
how can you prevent it happening? 1 Hardware conflict The number one reason why Windows crashes is
hardware conflict. Each hardware device communicates to other devices through an ....
If you had to pick something about the computer thatis your favorite what would you pick? My pick

How would the world be if computers didnt exist? For most of you reading this, computers have
some how become a dependable part of your lives, to have a day go by without using a computer would
seem un-natural( or atleast in my opinion). It hurts my head Just imagine the current world with
computers, just think..... 1)no online communites,( the current 300 people i know..will be down
to 20) 2)no emails,( waiting a whole week to get a message & spending money on postage stamps

I'm having trouble networking with a few Mac OS computers on the LAN I've got my knoppix
machine running on. LEt me see if I can give all of the pertinent details. This system is a
salvaged Intel Celeron 1.1 GHz running Knoppix 3.9. It's connected via eth0 to a router on which
reside an iMac and two Apple Laptops (I don't know their models, I'm not sure it's
relevant to the problem). I've been trying to get this computer and the Apple computers to
connect to a Freeciv server being run on one of the machines, but whenever a connection is at....
Well if we want to start talking about computers and I kind of do I would start with how many
computers I have. I currently have 11 computers and they are all less than two years old. I have
many things I use them for and I am going to tell you what I use them for shortly. three computers:
Three of my computers have 4 gig ram and are used for hosting games off of them when I do not have
money to buy dedicated servers. I have used all of them in the past three months but they have been
for ventrilo servers or cs servers but no real gaems. five computers: Five of my co....
I am wanting to save my money for a laptop computer, and I want to know what type/brand of laptop is
the best one, and will it work for years to come? /unsure.gif' border='0'
style='vertical-align:middle' alt='unsure.gif' /> I just want to know which laptop computer will
work, so I am not wasting money and something that won't work. I don't know of many laptop
computer brand names, I don't even know which one works the best because I have never owned a
laptop before. The only brand names that I know, that I think are good, are: Bell; HP; Gateway; and
A....
Well, what do you guys think the future of computers will become? Will computers manage many of the
things that humans do nowadays? I think a good example is the movie iRobot. I mean is our world
going to become like that, if yes, well when do you think this will happen? Do you think we will be
able at some point to travel as fast as the speed of light going from galaxy to galaxy?? I think we
will, and i hope i am alive for when this happens. I wonder if one day we will be able to live in a
nother planet. Who knows, but say what you think.....
