Since I'm in R&D, I wanted to ask our forum members:

What do you all do with your Digital Storm computer? Please list from the most frequently used and least.

For example, here's my list of what I use my Digital Storm computer for:
 
Please also include the average number of hours you do each item in a good day:
  1. Web Surfing - 2 Hours
  2. Digital content creation - 4 Hours
  3. Programming - 1 Hour
  4. Gaming - 15 Mins
  5. 3D Movies/Games - 30 Mins
I know DST4ME will have Folding in his. Star

Shockedbullseye,
 
   You forgot to include how many hours you spend wishing you had your new computer....SmileSmile............................................JPTOuch
 
 Oh, almost forgot....
 
  Web Surfing-2-3 hours
   Games-10-16 hours
  
   Actually, it varies...if I'm researching then game time is lower and web surfing is higher...
 
    And so it goes.........JPTOuch

Raiding is a term used for MMORPGS when you get a bunch of people together to "raid" a dungeon. IE 40 man BWL in World of Warcraft where you would gather 40 people to go on quests in a dungeon to kill bad guys, gain loots and achieve higher levels and win!

1. Watching TV online (3-4 hours a day)
2. Gaming (2-4 hours a day)
3. Web surfing (5-8 hours a day)
4. Music (1-2 hours a day)
5. Trying to figure out how to change out a front fan on an HAF-932 tower that you guys built and not have to cut the power cord with a knife. (1 hour a day) :P
If knowledge is power and power corrupts, then total knowledge corrupts totally.

You guys need to be more honest

1)  Watching/Downloading Porn - 5 hours per day
2)  Websurfing/watching Youtube - 4 hours per day
3)  Trying to hack DRM, DVD copy protection, figuring out bypass corporate security policies disabling my new printer drivers, downloading potentially copy righted materials, or doing other activities that might be considered "questionable" - 2 hours per day
4)  Reading/Writing emails - 1 hour per day
5)  Daydreaming about my new DS computer once it is built - 2 hours per day
6)  Other - 1 hour

ShockedWhoops,
 
 I was being honest.....downloading the porn is included w/web surfing
 
 Enjoying the porn is part of gaming !
