MacBook Pro
iPad
iPhone
Mostly use my MacBook when browsing here as doing administrative work is much easier with a full screen... though the iPad handles this site pretty well and the mobile site for phones is one of the better I have used.

Well if we're including smart phones, tablets, and PDAs and things I have more than 60 computers in my house. I typically have 5-10 desktop workstations set up around the house but currently only have a few on and running because I had to leave a few desktops in Florida when I moved back here at the end of April. I'm a computer programmer and often getting older Pentium 4 and core2 duo machines for dirt cheap or completely free. It's funny, Windows users think their older XP machines or Vista machines are junk because they can't run the newer operating systems, or they think they can't. A lot of windows users also get rid of their machines when they get a bunch of malware or virus of some sort. They don't understand you can wipe the drive and install something fresh on the machine. I run all unix environments so I often times take one of those old machines and install a command line environment on it for testing purposes and networking. Works like a new free machine. 
I have two laptops -- one isn't working. We thought it was the fan and a friend changed it, it booted up a couple times and then it was doing the same thing -- shutting down immediately upon boot up. *sigh* I loved that computer. I have a netbook I use now, but it is really slow at times loading things. I'd like to get a new computer but I don't want Windows 10, I'd like to stick with Windows 7 or something like that. But I like the convenience of my netbook -- I can stick it in a totebag and carry it around easily. I have a dumb phone. I don't like all the apps, I don't need to be able to access the internet. All I need to do is be able to make a phone call in an emergency or text friends (because I prefer texting) and that's all this phone does. Can't take photos, can't send or receive photos or emojis.
It has either a) a leaky capacitor on the motherboard, b) not enough thermal paste on the CPU, or c) bad RAM. |

PC for anyone that prefers to use it while in my house. 99.9% of my computing is on my Ipad or Iphone.
