Do you use your PC for gaming, office work, the net or a bit of everything?

Playing minesweeper doesn't count as a game ;)

The only reason I built my first computer was to play Doom II :D

Then I discovered it could do other stuff like Word Processing.

My goodness :eek:

Yes, it's a bit of everything here too, including games (GW, not Minesweeper :p ) Shopping, communicating with friends, writing, PC crafts, photo editing/storage, surfing in general......... makes me wonder how we ever used to manage without one (pre 2001) :D Great fun and a wonderful "tool" to own :nod:

Wouldn't it be great if every home in the country really could have one? I bet there are oodles of folk out there who would be amazed at how useful PCs are, if only they had access to one of their own. Just a thought :)

Ian, make sure this man get a free Title. ;)


One does tend to forget it is there, doing it's thing, not interfering with the day-to-day running of your PC ... I'm not surprised people forget. :D

Though, I do have 4 other PCs that just crunch.

What is the main reason for my PC?

A bit of everything, but mainly surfing the web. But I would love to know how to put a quote in my response permanently.
