90 seconds. I had to reboot, so I went to grab some Hot Pockets.

Only time I am away from my computers is when I have to goto the bathroom, sleep, shower and spend time with my spouse. So I just put it under 'A few hours'.

the hardest time of my life.

I'm sorry, but I refuse to believe that. If not being with your computer for an extended period of time is the hardest thing that's happened to you, you seriously need to get outside and live.

i need the computer daily to get all the news.
so it IS hard without, because i feel sort of cut off.
and at least its cool to be there if people have questions.

Actually it's been a lot longer that I have stayed away from computers, but then my parents bought their first PC for work and shortly after that my brother an me got our own (66 Mhz, 4 Mb RAM, no sound, graphic???). Those were great times, I should probably go outside more often.

my first comp had the version of windows right before windows 95. had to run games from dos. which was outside of windows at that point, not some crazy command applet they have now. wolfenstein, doom and duke nukem were great games.

3 days. I went camping. It was fun, but I did miss the steady hum of the case fans.

AngryDragon, that was Windows 3.1x you were using. I still have a copy (on several floppy disks) of it. It is now available for free on the 'net. http://www.sirendesign.net/ernweb/redmon

Glad to see I'm not the only one that finds it hard to sleep without the humming noise of the fans.

I can't sleep in silence anymore, unless I'm drunk.

I can sleep through just about anything most of the time. CPU fans, TV, radio, listening to headphones, etc.

When I was in prison, we didn't have any computers except for the one I molded oh so tenderly from my excrement.
