How many hours do you spend on your computer daily?

Was just wondering if you truly meant it as above or if you meant as in a computer... including work or school.

Note: I answered including work

Its really hard for me to say as I live by a progressive sleep schedule. I put 12 because I generally get a full sleep each day. Some days it would be more or less; I have other activities like building stuff, meals, hygiene, shopping or just going for drives.

Not a very well thought out poll, since most people wouldn't be using their computers the same amount of time daily. On a workday I may not use it at all, and on a day off I may spend every waking hour on there, from the moment I get up to the moment I sleep, even taking the laptop to bed with me.

During school, probably somewhere around 7 hours a day.

On weekends and holidays, can be every waking moment (easily 15+ hours), or could only be 7 or 8. Depends on the day and what I'm doing.

I once spent the entire weekend on my computer ...

No sleep!! !

I spend all my waking hours on my computer - doing various things, gaming, (not so much, but that will be sorted) internet, communication and some work, oh and some research too

Including time at school, around 15-16 hrs. The rest is taking care of biological necessities and commuting to school... And my family doesn't care because everyone in my family spends >8 hours a day on the computer or watching TV as well...

Actually, in order to answer (16) I had to count how many hours I spend away from the computer!

I guess that block of people at 10 hours are the ones who spend the whole working day in front of one, and then tinker in front of one or two other ones when they get home.

Like me...

A lot of computer nerds here it would seem. :nerdy:

I'm kind of a nerd. I love computers, just because I know how to do so much stuff with them. I'm not one of those people who only knows how to check emails and browse the internet.
