Besides the email and the websurfing (not to count the many hours spent here!), what do you use your computer for or what do you "do" with it. No one who has a computer these days doesn't factor in the cost of accessing the internet from home and often on the road. All computers are internet ready and I have met almost no one that says that they just use it for word processing or just emails anymore. Young and old are flocking into the computer literate techie fold and all are embracing interactivity with media and streaming video and audio files, etc.
So there's the question, how else do you use your computer other than accessing the internet.

Apart of e-mail and surfing the web I use my PC to play and to learn how to work different programs like Macromedia products (for making web sites), Microsoft Office and many more.
But I use my PC more for e-mail and surfing the web because I'm a student and I have unlimited free internet.

That's cool, and you can tell your parents that you use it for homework right?

That's my point that most people use their computer to go online. Many do not learn to do anything else with them really.

Whoa, you certainly do get a lot of different uses out of your machine don't you? I do much the same but I end up some days doing nothing on it but internet stuff.
