Joe454 Nov 3rd, 99, 6:52 PM Ditto what steve said. I don't have a computer. all I have is webtv, which is just a internet box. I have several things that I check daily. Yes, I would go nuts if I had to go a week without the net.
Havoc Nov 3rd, 99, 7:23 PM Oh, you don't even wanna know. I was on a plane last night and they had these phones where you could pay $2 a minute for a slow-ass internet connection. If I had a laptop, I probably would have racked up a $200 bill....

The numbers of Internet users:
142 million worldwide in 1998
502 million worldwide in 2003
That is 72 million added per year or 197,000 a day
63 million in United States in 1998
177 million in United States in 2003
That is 23 million added per year or 62,500 per day

I don't think I am dependant on my computer. I can use any one of the 3 pc's I own. I also use the unix X terminals at school. So, I never miss out.

Randy Mosier Nov 3rd, 99, 10:49 PM This site is almost the only reason I have a computer and internet service. I spend about an hour to an hour and a half a day browsing through the tech forum. I may not post replies every day, but I cruise through here daily. So the answer is, I'm very dependant on this computer.

283v8 Nov 4th, 99, 10:15 AM Very, Very dependent - lost my hard drive at work a few months ago and hardly knew what to do till it was back. PS guys; BACK YOUR STUFF UP! I couldn't believe what I lost !

Gotta have a Chevy !In Durham N.C.
Why is there never enough time or money to do it right the first time, but ALWAYS enough to do it over?
Make it look the way you like it, forget what the other guys say!
Joe Y Nov 4th, 99, 2:28 PM Ummm, its how I make my living. I keep others machines up. I'll throw some figures out of what I monitor (realize this is THE largest corporate network in the world).
900+ Unix servers
17,000+ Cisco routers.
800+ NT Servers
