Your computers at home

[Gravito]

How many computers do you (and other family members) have at home? Are all the computers connected in a network? Do you use a wireless or wired network?

 

[Dantheman221]

I got a network router connecting all the 5 PC's in my house!

 

[Eirreann]

Okay, let's see... I think I have 5 in total, and all of them are over five years old except for the family desktop, which is a really cheap HP.

There are two laptops and two desktops at home in total. I have a laptop and a desktop myself. The main computer is an Alienware desktop but the others are of other brands.

We have 3. His and her M14x's and Inspiron 15R for our daughter. Our phones, and two printers are on the network too.

We have three desktops and two laptops.

Mine:
Gaming/editing desktop
work/editing desktop
travel laptop

Brothers:
work desktop
work laptop

My network is setup kind of weird. My ISP is wireless so I have POE which runs into my router from my wireless radio. The router I use is a mikrotik RB750 because I wanted to be able to have more control over my connection and what my router does, but because when I bought the router they did not have a wireless version out yet I have a Linksys WRT54g connected to it for wireless.

So far it has worked out nicely. Albeit overkill

Oh well I got my desktop, which I use the most when I'm at home, my AW m17x and my prev laptop which is being used by my mother. Then There's randomly connected my PS3 and my iPhone. All wireless except the desktop.

Sorry, you were a victim of the 6 hrs of lost data from the corrupt db last night.

Yeah I knew that. I suppose that nuked was to harsh a word. Disappeared do to technical mishap would have been more actuate.
