How many hours a day do you spend on your PC?

[Devilfish]

Too long is probably the best answer for me.

On my days off, I get up to eat and go to the toilet lol.

Need to cut back...missus is getting increasingly annoyed!

[allycoops]

far to many, my mrs goes off it too, think they all do,

It suits them when you find a bargain they want or something the kids want, but rest of the time its constant moaning,Lol


Never Mind, Glen wait till you get that ring on the finger mate, it only gets worse mate.PMSL.

[thommo]

same here too many.............but our lass lets me get on with it lol.

[aftermath]

Well at least i get plenty of excersize on my days off, back and foreward to the fridge for beer. lol.

but like the rest of you , i am on too much. Wife not amused at all when its after midnight.

[Jaffa]

same here too many.............but our lass lets me get on with it lol.

snap thommo....my better half used to moan a wee bit but she doesnt now, I get withdrawal symptons myself if I stay away to long from pc...I am not kidding....:rofl:

Even if I am bored and can find nothing to do online, i just sit looking at the screen.....I need help.

[father ted]

far too long whats even worse im on it at work too :roflmao:

[felix1]

now if only the pc could go to work for you and look after the missus......

[thommo]

now if only the pc could go to work for you and look after the missus......



ive heard of those sort of pc's lmao.....

[davidharvey75]

And i thought it was just my other half!!!

[Ham]

It's amazes me - when I think about it - how much time I spend tweaking various things on my computer: much more than I spend doing anything really useful on it.

[allycoops]

LOL, But how much time do you spend in the arcade Hamilton playing games, mate?

[Ham]

LOL, But how much time do you spend in the arcade Hamilton playing games, mate?

Oh, I don't know...

A poor old chap has to find his fun where he can get it. :)

[allycoops]

Oh, I don't know...

A poor old chap has to find his fun where he can get it. :)

As long as you're enjoying yourself Ham mate, thats all that matters

[charlie senator]

Well i guess i'm one of the lucky ones ! my mrs is worse than me on the computer She sits with her laptop playing games for hours and hours while i'm at the main pc.She is one of those that WONT be beaten by a game so i've seen her spend anything up to 6 month's cracking one .I just haven't got that much patience

[shortyball]

Not as much personal time as i used to playing games and such when i was out of work and at uni.
But im on work pc eight hours a day sometimes so i try to get some away time when im at home and weekends. But as you can see im on it again while at home. Its a killer

[biffo1]

think with all of us we spend way to long on here,time flys bye and 7 hours just goes,the way i see it tho im not a piss head i work , still have a social life so and i got the wife a lappy to keepher happy pmsl

[Raven]

My PC's like a running tap, it's on half the time even when I'm not using it. I have my excuses ready though cos I am usually downloading lol.

Mainly use my PC as a gaming/multimedia hub. Everything that can gets played through it. Convenience.

[stevetotheo]

Before it used to be at lease 8 hour now a rug rat on board just about 2 hours lol i miss my games

[the-viewer]

If Im trying to get someting to work as long as it takes..the only thing I will come away from the comp..Is for me fottie (or when me sons playing on a sunday for his local team )...

[ktbken]

far to much as i work on them all day and spend about 4 hr a night on as well.
Thats not counting the xbox360, ps3 and wii.
sad i know

[rustybaker]

all bloomin day at work! and hopefully some at home I if can get the kids off !:damnmate:

[C64]

My pc is in the living room, i can see the tv from here so i spend roughly 24 hours a day in front of my pc, it's an atrocious lifestyle :(

[jainorm1]

i only go on my pc twice a day
once in the morning from 8 till 12 and once in the afternoon from 1 untill 10

[willowdogg2005]

10 hour every hour

[silverfox]

far to long for her indoors liking but it keeps the old brain cells working at my age and keeps me from going to the boozer to see my old friend the :elefant:

[conor-mr2]

All day in work!! And the last thing I want to do when I go home is turn the damn thing on but here I am!!

[baldur]

Too long and getting worse. On average I'd say around 6 hours a day but it can be up to 12. Whole household is getting like that 2 pcs and 6 laptops among us

[justsomeone]

I would say not long enough, there is always something to read or learn. Just not enough hours in a day, and not enough days in a weekend, lol...

[oneqi]

need more time to catch up on me torrent downloads .. think i need glasses soon

[janobi]

Used to be about 17 hours a day. But I work away from PCs now, so only about 6 hours. lol.

[bigguns247]

My pc is on almost 24/7 so I check it several times a day for hours, sad I know!

[Dreamer]

I've got square eyes and my guy has to wait till I go to the loo or the kitchen b4 he gets a shot of the PC!!:girl:

[sed]

9 hours in work then from about 8pm till 2am. i try to do something outside at the weekends to get some fresh air so now im sitting on the decking with my laptop. im such a nerd i scare myself.

[Milno]

Umm.... I work from home, so I spend 9 hours a day for work, then probs a few more for play. Tho some days, I've been known to spend 30 hours straight..

[dkRookie]

Same here! I work from home 3 days a week and often do a weeks worth of hours in those 3 days. Nice thing about my current arrangement is I get paid overtime, a good thing as its difficult to stop working when your at home.

[gazz10]

pc on 24/7 fair enough it not in here, on several other 'sites', i just hate auto updates it ~~~~s my stats.lol

[vibez]

Good question, the answer was kinda shocking to me. I spend 8hrs at work on the PC, then must spend another 3-4hrs at night time. The sooner we get computers implanted in our brains the better lol

[mp5850q]

Caffine is my friend...:burnout:

[masterblaster]

i must say i am on mine from when i get in from work till i goto bed but she dosn't mind as i bulit 1 for her and she goes on bingo and ebay so it keeps her of my back.....lol

[Seedy_r0m]

I'm on it 7.5 hours a day at work.

When I come home, it's switched on after shovelling my dinner down my neck, and I spend another 5-6 hours glued to it.
--
I changed jobs recently, we had to use 2 x PC's at the same time, but the sods had tied each of them down & all activity was logged, so all surfing was stopped.

After 3 weeks of that, I told them where to stick it & I'm now back with my previous employer :)

[charrism]

My Pc is 24/7 as well and i am on for 2-3 hours per day + 8 hours at least at work

[Dazmeister]

8hrs a day at work for me, some hours at the weekend. but to be fair I got so much going on with DIY and fixing other peoples computers at the mo I hardly get the chance to get online in the evening before I'm beckoned. Women just don;t understand. ;)

[speed007]

ummm dont know the hours lets talk about days!! mrs moans but she gets stuck with telly so works out!

[westkill]

my pc,s on all the time even when i go to work sad really lol

[delboy13]
