What counts as a computer?
Does the Ipod/Iphone count? what about the Blackberry and the that rubbish Suduko thing I got given last year? Then there's the PVR and the camera, if I add in all the electronic junk a family of six has I reckon I'm close to matching the entire computing power of the Peruvian space agency.Comment

My wife and son have their own laptops. One of my daughters has my old desktop. I have a laptop, desktop and SAP server that belong to myco, plus one laptop that belongs to clientco. So that's seven.
Also smartphone, wii and Dreambox 500c, (digital receiver) which runs linux.
My son has an iPod touch - so eleven in total, I guess.Down with racism. Long live miscegenation!Comment

I think AtW is going to win this one. Or possibly Ardesco.
We've got:
iMac
3xlaptops (one personal one each + a work one)
File & web server
Netbook
Then there's the consoles (PS3, Xbox, Wii)
Then a couple of unconnected NAS boxes, a network printer, and I think there's an old laptop or two in the loft."See, you think I give a tulip. Wrong. In fact, while you talk, I'm thinking; How can I give less of a tulip? That's why I look interested."Comment
