I know i'm probably asking the wrong group of people really, but anyway...

Housemate asked me this yesterday. My answer was "too much" He then said i'm not joking, i'm worried, I reckon 80%. Another of his bent questions which he clearly knows the answer for.

I work all day in IT then get home, and go on pc for maybe 2 hours. Cook, exercise, maybe go out once a week in the week. Always out on sat night, sunday I usually go somewhere or on saturday recovery

I suppose its better than the warcraft crew who live on their PCs or couch potatoes who do nothing but TV all day

How much time do you think you spend on a PC?

/pedant

i usually don't spend any time on my pc but quite a lot of time using it and sitting staring at the screen

/pedant

all day work then couple of hours max evening

JAYJT29 · 23 Mar 2010 at 19:22

I reckon about 4 to 5 hours a day, thats not including work

manbearpig · 23 Mar 2010 at 20:48

Around 7-8 hours a day, a mixture of movies, ocuk, facebook, school work..

Stretch · 23 Mar 2010 at 20:53

Most of my waking day. Start at 8-9, finish at 6 then head home to work on other project and surf the web.

nex20 · 23 Mar 2010 at 20:54

No more than 6 hours a day. Weekends im only really on the PC for 2-3 hours

Tom0 · 23 Mar 2010 at 20:55

I used to spend about 80-90 hours a week infront, now only about 30-40.

About an hour total during the day, if I load up a game late at night a couple of evenings - maybe another 2hrs.
We have a HTPC in the living room where we watch majority of our programs - does this count?

If I answer that question honestly I may have to kill myself.

At the moment, wake up about noon, on pc until 3/4am. Move for food/toilet, oh, and to feed the cat.

I have no reason to go outside, although I do need to pop up to the shops for some milk, but that can wait.

Why do you have no reason to go outside? Do you not even have to sign on?

I work on Computer so 12 hours a day if i'm at work then what ever I do at home after, so add another hour or so onto that.

If i'm off work I tend to spend about 8 hours (But that is on my own PC or Laptop) and focus on other stuff like the Gym also

Neolink · 23 Mar 2010 at 22:07

probably 95% of the time that I am awake is at a computer

xen_ · 23 Mar 2010 at 22:21

A lot of time, but considering all the different things I do on it it's not so bad, definately less of a waste of time then watching TV all day even if it's rubbish.

snowdog · 23 Mar 2010 at 22:24

Too much, about 7 hours a day? Perhaps less on days when I go out and have work, but at uni I'm also always at a pc...

It's still better than it used to, around 14 or 15 I spent my whole day when I was not at school at my pc, in weekends 16-17 hours a day...

crunchee · 23 Mar 2010 at 22:39

That'll be 24-(However long i managed to sleep for) for me

Kurisu Makise · 23 Mar 2010 at 22:58

bout 2hrs a day in the week, all day on a sunday for games.

GreatAuk · 23 Mar 2010 at 23:16

Indeed.

I live with my parents at the moment.

Do not need a job at this moment in time and have no urge to find one.

Not on the dole, but thanks for assuming.

Very similar, unless I have something specific to do like go to lectures or go out.

Stelly · 23 Mar 2010 at 23:45

I hate to think to be honest, but I dont think long enough... I would be on mine 24/7 if I had the chance, BUT I do also go to the gym 3 times a week.
