    2 laptops (1 mac)
    2 PCs (brand new)
    2 pocket pcs
    1 palm
    As usual, nothing quite works 100%

    I only use the mac. - creature of habit. ;)

    *1 powerbook can usually heat a small island alone

    I have 2 laptops and a desktop, which is never used anymore. I have 4 here at the office (1 always on, 1 turned on when I remember, and 2 for users).

    I need 2 more at the office. 1 in the picture room so I can see how bad my pictures look a lot more quickly and another in the warehouse to print out shipping labels more efficitenly. But in florida, putting a computer in a room that is like 140 degrees 5 months of the year isn't wise :)

    let's see here... wife's laptop, my laptop, my other laptop, my other other laptop, the laptop in the garage that never gets used, the home automation computer, my server, my pc, my other pc, two pocket pcs, 5 palms, does an iPod count? ... I know there is more. Oh... there are a couple of broken down systems - two in my closet and one in the garage. And there are two unaccounted for laptops. I think one's in my sacto office and the other I may have given away. Oh... and the old luggable. That makes...somewhere around 22.

    In my own defense, I have certain machines that I just use to run copies of my client's servers so I can troubleshoot and develop locally. And a few of the above just don't get used because they are old and slow.

    Now the iDrive system in my car could be considered a computer too. But to go down that road... I have way too many gadgets.
