| What kind of computer do you use? Just because I am curious, I am in no way connected with any commercial interest in this poll.
If you have access to more than one computer that you use on a daily basis, specify your preferred computer type. I think this will be interesting because of the wide range of ages on this forum.

| Poll? What poll? There is no poll. Which is all that keeps it from being flawed. |

It's really funny to wait and watch where you're going to appear next! |

| Of course it's flawed, it is a poll that only allows 10 choices. I had to lump Gateway in with Other and build your own. (which seemed to be a fairly logical way to group them to me).

| i'll agree that this poll is clearly flawed because i'm only allowed to pick one option. |

My first apartment had a bed that pulled out from the wall.

| Hmmm.. depends upon where I am and what I am doing
My computers used within the last 48 hours,
Dell Lattitude Laptop with Wireless (work)
Dell laptop (home)
"Whitebox" desktop (home)
Compaq/ HP iPAQ handheld (work and home)
I'm upgrading the home desktop to another "Whitebox" desktop, in the next week of so.
- Antec 500W case
- Asus P5GD1 915P motherboard
- Intel 3.0 GHz P4 processor
- 1 GB Corsair RAM
- Seagate 160 GB Hard drive
- ATI Radeon X600 PRO 256MB Graphics card
I *like* Whitebox machines, where you can specify everything in them. And I'm canabalizing the two previous generation machines stashed under the desk for what I can salvage before they end up as recycling. |

| Apple G4 Powerbook, 15" screen here. It's the electronic representation of sexiness.

| More like the electronic representation of a stereotypical dumb blonde. Nice to look at, but not really useful for anything besides making pretty pictures and movies. And, of course, the light color. |
