    How many computers do you have running at your house? Me, I am tipping the scales at 5. 1 Game machine. 1 Laptop 1 Linux Box 1 Dev Box 1 Beefy box to handle my VMs for testing, builds, and playing with betas. I've recently "simplified" things a bit in order to get down to this number :). Before depending on what I was developing or testing I would have anywhere from 8 - 10 boxes running. I am looking at cutting it down further if I can reasonably move my dev box and linux box to a VM.

    A human being should be able to change a diaper, plan an invasion, butcher a hog, conn a ship, design a building, write a sonnet, balance accounts, build a wall, set a bone, comfort the dying, take orders, give orders, cooperate, act alone, solve equations, analyze a new problem, pitch manure, program a computer, cook a tasty meal, fight efficiently, die gallantly. Specialization is for insects. - -Lazarus Long, Time Enough For Love

          2 computers at the home office not counting the laptop. Both are dual processor amd boxes running gentoo linux running the usual suite of office applications and games. On top of this both are running MythTV (3 total tuners) which is basically a very configurable very much more advanced TIVO.

                  6 1) Win XP for video and audio recording/editing. 2) Win 98 for file storage. 3) Win 2000 for browsing, IM, and the occasional homework assignment. (A teenage daughter) 4) Win 2000 for document creation and storage. (My wife's work) 5) Win XP (this is away from home at Lakehead presently) 6) Win XP (Laptop that's away at Western for the moment) The Win 98 machine has four 40G drives in it full of MP3s. :omg:

                                How many computers do you have running at your house? Me, I am tipping the scales at 5. 1 Game machine. 1 Laptop 1 Linux Box 1 Dev Box 1 Beefy box to handle my VMs for testing, builds, and playing with betas. I've recently "simplified" things a bit in order to get down to this number :). Before depending on what I was developing or testing I would have anywhere from 8 - 10 boxes running. I am looking at cutting it down further if I can reasonably move my dev box and linux box to a VM.

                                A human being should be able to change a diaper, plan an invasion, butcher a hog, conn a ship, design a building, write a sonnet, balance accounts, build a wall, set a bone, comfort the dying, take orders, give orders, cooperate, act alone, solve equations, analyze a new problem, pitch manure, program a computer, cook a tasty meal, fight efficiently, die gallantly.

                                My personal machines:     Desktop machine for development work and testing     Laptop for portability etc Others in the house     My sisters desktop     Sisters laptop     Dad's backup server Others in Pi Logic (home-run business)     Front-desk - for emails and Skype phone     Mum's - Accounting & personal use     FPGA development machine     Dad's laptop     EEPROM programmer laptop (running at 66MHz :omg:)     2x File Servers     2x Embedded Software Development     2x old laptops for various testing on old systems.     AutoCAD machine (running DOS and getting its power from a tractor battery) Others in PL2 (Pi Logic 2), 2nd Pi Logic building     3 for various testing and accessing the network And probably another 5 or 6 in pieces which have been canabalised. So in total there are 20 operational computers exluding any micros.

                                You'd have to be specific here because we refer to house as the entire farm, as you can see these computers are spread across three buildings but takes under a minute to walk from either extremity.


                                If you're stuck in a rut: 1) Consult the documentation* 2) Google it 3) Ask a sensible question 4) Try an ancient ritualistic knowledge summoning (:badger::badger::badger:) dance :jig: 5) Phone :bob: * - If the documentation is MSDN > 6.0 then forget it!

                                    Well ok, on the condition that they have to be running it's only 21: 12 Windows servers (2x Win 2000, the rest are 2003, with three 64 bit) 3 PCs (old dev boxes that moved down the food chain, all XP) 2 Linux servers (CentOS, running Asterisk) 2 Laptops (XP, in bad need of upgrading) 1 Dev machine (XP 64 bit) 1 Media centre box (XP MCE) I hope to lose one of the old PCs in a few weeks by passing it on to a friend. I'm not including the 150 computers stacked on my living room floor[^] because those aren't actually running. ;P
