I just had a quick count and we've got two PC's and eight Lappies (so ten) and there are six people in my family.

(Not to mention numerous PDA's and stuff).

What the hell, do these things reproduce at night?

So, all things considered, my 'Computer to People' ratio is about 2:1. Any advance on that?

Two laptops, a desktop, and an under-the-tv-PC. So just 2:1.

Unless you start counting handhelds etc...

Don't have a computer, although work does of course.

I can't escape the fact they're very useful. I just don't really want one.

ETA:

So that's 0:2.
