Hi there,
I'd like to know what you're using to be online :)
So I do the start^^ I use my Laptop and my Smartphone( Apple IPod )and I could use our computer, too. I don't use the computer because I'd rather like to play games on it ;)
What about you?:)
-
Just my laptop, I don't really own any other device to go online. I'm getting a tablet soon, but I'm not sure what I'll use it for just yet.
-
I have 7 personal desktops in the home. I rarely use my laptop except on the road (which is what it was intended for). I have a smartphone and 2 tablets (iPad & Android 4.0 tablet) but I never use them for on the internet. They're a pain in the ass. And soooo slow! I don't understand how ANYONE could use a smartphone or tablet to get online without killing themselves to end the torture. Every time I need to get online on my smartphone for an emergency on the road (to find a store or to respond to an email), I just want to die. Something that should take 30 seconds ends up taking 20 minutes.
-
I only go on the internet at my desktop at home really.
I don't have a smartphone. Really, I just have a cheap phone that I actually just use for calling people, and the occasional text message. I don't ever feel the need to go on the internet for anything when I'm out. I always plan my route, with like google maps or something, and print out directions beforehand if I really need that.
I might get a laptop or something someday, but I don't have the money right now. I can really make due without one though. it's not something I HAVE to have.

7 Desktops!?! :o
lol,this is really much^^
I only know someone who has 2 :lol
Last year I got an Ipod for christmas and I mostly used it for playing games like Doodlejump(especially in boring lessons :p) and for my social networks.
This year I got a laptop(I write with it now :DD) I wanted one, because I need my own computer to write my fanfictions and to search stuff for school.
I can't phone with others with my Ipod so I got a cheap mobile like yours vonboy :)
This must be around this summer :D
The time before I really don't need a mobile(I used my moms old mobile,if I need one ;) )
BTW: Does someone watch LBT movies with his laptop or even with his smartphone?
-
I use 2 pc and a laptop,and I have a cheap only for calling mobile too,and i'm fine with that.
To Ducky123:Yep,I use my laptop to watch LBT movies sometimes.
-
I have 3 desktops and a laptop at home (the newest components in the computers are 3 years old). One desktop is used only by my father, one by both my mother and father, but more often by my mother, one by my brother, and I use the laptop. But almost never more than 2 computers are on, because electricity is expensive.
I watch LBT on the laptop too.
-
I mostly use my trusty Dell desktop at home. It's never failed me. There's the laptop at work but those keys are so small. I also use the tablet but mostly if I'm on the road or to do a quick task (Facebook post, email, tweet, download an ebook, etc.) before bed.
And would you believe I still have my sister's old Jurassic Era WebTV appliance (circa 1999) hooked to my bedroom TV. I only use it a couple times a week to keep up with old webtv email pals who refuse to move with the times. They really cling to this machine though it's so outdated, slow, and can't access sites worth a darn.
-
I use my laptop to go online. I have a main computer, but it's ridiculously slow, and it crashes randombly every half hour or so. Any time I use it I feel like putting my foot through the wall.
-
My cellphone, Playstation 3, and computer can all go online, though I usually just use my computer for online stuff.
-
I use my laptop, iPad, and iPhone.
-
I primarily use my Macbook when I'm home. When I'm out at school I use my Droid 2 Global and my Fujitsu Stylistic ST5111 tablet, which is older than the Great Valley itself. :lol
On occasion I also use the Wii to get on YouTube and once I get a new PS3 I'll be using that instead.
-
Just my HP notebook that I use all the time!
(PS: I'm typing this message from one of the school's student computers.)
-
wow! so much replies :smile
there are so much ways to go online today! 10 years ago the computer was the only one,but today... :D
If this trend still continues, we can go online with a toaster in a few years :DD
-
^That would be interesting. :lol Well, it can be easily done today, but what's the point?
For example, there are refrigerators that can go online. The fridge keeps track of what you keep in it, and if something is missing, the fridge goes online and orders it, and then you have it delivered to your home. Those fridges never caught on, because the electronics that enable the Internet in a fridge only increase its cost and fragility (I support the machine design philosophy that whenever a machine can do its job without electronics, no electronics should be put in it), and offer no significant benefit. Because if you don't want to buy an item anymore or you want to buy something completely new, you have to reprogram the fridge every time. Also, delivery for a single item would be prohibitively expensive, and waiting for enough products to be consumed so the fridge can order them all at once and save on delivery costs can be very long. So, it's easier to just have an ordinary dumb fridge, and take care of the shopping yourself. ;)

I user my iPhone and my desktop.
-
I only have a laptop at the moment, so I use that. And it works pretty well for me. :)
-
I mainly use my desktop. However, whenever I do my part time online job, I use my laptop. I also use my laptop when I go to my parents' house on the weekend.
Aside from that, I do a little online gaming with my XBox 360 and my Wii. Have yet to set up my Wii U for it though. :P:
Still trying to figure out what's best for my borrowed Netflix Account. I'll figure it out one day. :)
That's pretty much it. Time to head to my offline job.
See ya! :wave
-
I used to use my Wii, iPod Touch, DSi and 3DS to get online, but now I mainly use my new iPhone 4S and Acer laptop that I've had for 3 years to keep in touch with my online friends.
-
Currently, I am using a Gateway laptop with Windows XP installed while I am in hopes for a new computer, which I shall get very soon.
@Blitz: Geez, you sure like changing your avatar and signature, don't you?
-
I just use my desktop and sometimes my tablet.
-
Most of the time I use the netbook that my school gave to me, but it's more like my own now, I guess. I doubt I'll get my own laptop any time soon, but this does the job for now. So much junk on here...
Sometimes I also use my tablet, but that's mostly when I'm out and about since the netbook's much heavier. :DD
