How many computers does 1 house need!!!

My main gaming system, a small form factor cube, two laptops and a 24/7 server. However the server's dead right now *sigh*

athlon 3000 gt6600 gen purpose rig

stonky shiny new dual core laptoppy
and the beast pentium 2 lappy armada 7400 for surfing


oh and they all have a proper os installed UBUNTU for the win :)
 
1 Upstaires, 1 Downstaires and one server, sometimes all 3 is on at once but most the time just 2 or even just the server.
 
Right now I've probably got I think 5 computers, 2 of which are laptops, 2 are PII era or before so realistically 1 good computer for the moment. I have got rid of a couple but I think the most working at any one time was 6.
 
3 Pc's here. My pc is on 24/7 and has been for the last several years expect for a few hours down time (cleaning/upgrading), sons Barton 3200 most hours god sends and my Daughters laptop is basically on for home work and such stuff :)
 
My main Oppy170 rig
just got a dual xeon setup
amd XP1700 rig
AMD333MHz rig
AMDXP 3200+ rig
AMDXP 2600+ rig
Pentium 233 rig

The oppy is on most of the time, xeons I havent quite got setup yet. been at work all day and only just got my hands on them. trying to sell the XP1700 rig and the 333mhz rig.
pentium 233 is junk tbh.....
other 2 XP rigs arent mine.
 
Have 3 in my house. My gaming rig which is only off when I sleep so about 4-6 hours a day, the rest of the time i'm gaming on it usually. Only time it's off apart from that is when i'm at work on a weekend, and it's my last weekend at that aswell lol.

Other 2 are in bits as this Conroe rig I've just got.

Oh laptop aswell which doesn't see much use until I go to Uni.
