    The title pretty much says it all, although I should point out not what you have.. More like what do you use the most often to do basic day to day things like browse the site and internet..

    I personally use my Desktop for everything and I rarely use my phone to surf the internet. What do you guys use?

    l use my iPod for everything, if I'm at home. Definitely the best thing I've ever bought, I'm constantly listening to music!

    I was thinking about getting a desktop, but I decided against it as I am going to Uni soon. Instead, I got a netbook (it's like tiny) so that will be far more useful for lectures etc. I still have my older big laptop, but I use that mostly for watching tv shows...

    I can't use a netbook. They are way too small.. And I constantly hit more than one key and accidentally touch the trackpad.

    I use my desktop for gaming, art (drawing in Photoshop and producing in Fruity Loops), and music.
    Phone for well... a phone.
    Tablet for portable internet browsing and music

    I mainly use a tablet to surf, but sometimes it seems that I need to use the laptop especially if I want to upload photos as the android platform doesn't seem to handle this task very well, also I need the laptop when putting new firmware on my Asus router

    I use a notebook for everything. My desktop PC had major upgrades twice. It was time to give it up

    I almost always use my laptop. I check my email and things on a desktop at work, but I don't "browse" the internet because you never know who might be tracking your internet usage at work. I generally use my phone at work for that reason, but I only use it to check things, very rarely to actually post.

    Whenever I'm not at home, I'm on my iPod Classic. Sadly, I broke my desktop trying to change the case, but usually I'd be gaming and skyping on that 24/7. It's been a boring summer without it.

    I use my Macbook and iPhone every day. Most days I use my iPad because I like to play the games on it :slight_smile: I have an Acer laptop as well but my dad uses it more than I do!

    I have an 11 inch MacBook Air. It is basically my life.

    BUT when I'm not with my laptop, which during the summer is frequently, I use my phone for casual internet needs.

    I have a PC and a Macbook Pro, though I mainly use PC for gaming needs.

    I use my iphone for all other internet needs when I'm not at home.

    I only have a desktop so it's hard to use any of the other options...

    Wait...I do have a laptop, but it's a 20 year old curiousity that these days only boots on whim. But I suppose if I got the right wiring, and slapped a copy of Netscape Navigator 3 on it, I could browse the Internet with it!

    Desktop pride! I have a great laptop and I love it, but the power, comfort, and relative low expense of a desktop are unassailable.
