Awaiting 2 x Fuji touchscreens!

There is only 2 of us, so that's 8:1! Greedy? ;-)

To be fair, some of that lot will be on the market soon &
1 x Laptop & 1 x Ipaq belongs to SWMBO's employer.

PS. If there are any burglars reading this - don't even think about it!

households


As it seems a bit quiet with Easter and all that, what's the average
computing device\Person ratio in most ukha's households?

By computing device I suppose you should include anything with storage
and an operating system. I reckoned mine up before and got a bit of a
shock i.e.:

Main PC - 		Windows XP
Work Laptop - 	Windows XP
MP3 Server - 	Windows XP
Firewall - 		Linux
SWMBO PC - 		Windows XP\98
Playroom PC - 	Windows XP
Bedroom 1 - 	Multitainer (Windows 98)
Bedroom 2 - 	Multitainer (Windows 98)
Tivo - 		Linux PC
Palm PDA - 		Palm OS
Handspring Visor  Palm OS
Fuji Pentablet - 	Windows 98 (when it arrives!)

So with 4 of us in the household, that comes in at 3 devices per person.
How does everyone else fair?

Don
