Default So How Many Computers in your Household?

I posted a news article about the amount of computer are in a family's household so I wanted to conduct a poll.



How many Computer's are in your Household? Even Gramp's PII 266..LOL

Quote from my article

Despite a PC market in freefall, it seems silicon.com readers are still packing a fair few pieces of hardware.

Asked how many PCs - including laptops, desktops and netbooks - they own, 45 per cent of ZDNet sister site silicon.com readers who responded admitted to having between three and five.

An even more hardware-heavy 32 per cent claimed to have between five and 10 computers tucked away while another six per cent 'fessed up to having more than 10 machines. And presumably very large houses and/or understanding partners.

At the low end, 11 per cent owned up to having a pair of PCs, five per cent said they own just one and a hardware-shunning one per cent said they have no PCs at all (which presumably means they responded to the poll either in the office or on a friend's hardware.)

In spite of silicon.com readers' fondness for devices, the PC market continues to struggle in the face of the recession.

Wait... is it how many you own, or how many you have in your household? Your thread and poll conflict - those two are completely different.

Fortunately, I own all of the computers in my household, so it's not hard to pin a number down.
