I know for me it is vital. I work from home and run an e-commerce store selling second hand books. So my business is run solely from the internet and I couldn't operate without a computer. I also spend many hours of relaxation time, reading blogs, playing games or posting on myLot. I was just wondering how important a computer was in your day to day life?

Script, I have to agree with you every part of my day it seems is tied to my computer somehow, from paying bills, managing my bank accounts to making money online at home. in fact when my hands are idle they feel as though they must have a mouse and a keyboard. Its almost unconsious, as soon as I awake and the coffee pot is brewing the first thing I am doing is waking up my friend the computer. BTW I need to check out your book site. I am an avid reader.

You sound like me *laughs* Only I turn the computer on to load before I make my coffee! And yes, definately check out the site... let me know if you are after anything in particular that isn't there!

Very important. I can't live without it. I use it more than 10 hours/day. Check email, study, chatting, make a program, playing a game and of course making money.

Very important for sure. I often use it for school, sometimes I use a computer at work, and I'm trying to do little things each day to earn more money online as well.

My computer is very important in my daily life, I use it for work, buying things, reading and it is also my way of keeping my social life going. I am also now addicted to mylot, so I really couldn't go without my computer now.

Yes for me it is vital that I use my computer everyday, I work from home earning money everyday, so if I do not do my work on my computer of course then I will not earn any money here. I also find it very important to contact my family member over the net as they are scattered all over the world.

Well, as an MIS Staff of a Japanese firm, I'd say that it's already a part of my daily life.
