How many hours a day on your computer?


How many hours a day do you spend on your computer(includes work computers)? I spend about 4 or 5 on days when I am bored with nothing to do, but on school and workdays probably about 2 doing my programming, and another hour or so playing games.

I think I average about 10 hours per day weekdays and about 3 per day at weekends.

I'm at work for nine hours, programming, during which time I have a one hour lunch break which I spend playing games, then when I get home I usually go online for about an hour later at night.

That's scary!!

Does watching TV on a KnoppMyth box count as computer time?

Then lots. Lots and lots.
