2 old folks here
1-desktop
1-laptop
1-mp3 player for my 70 y.o. hubby, 1-I pod for me, 1 smart phone when we travel, cell phones for 2
Our girls are amazed that we are computer literate and willing to try new things when many of their friends' parents are not, but I love the new things they are coming out with and want to at least try it.
When I started typing, I had a smith-corona typewriter, then came the selectrics and now the computer. Yes!
When I started talking on the telephone, we had rotary dial and a party line for 4 families. Now we have Skype. Gotta love all the changes!

One desk top-over 10yrs old-thinking of replacing, but don't know with what....and one laptop in kitchen for recipes, look up stuff and be here!!!!!! I do not do any banking biz, bill paying on computer....use the old fashioned checkbook and stamps system......don't need to communicate with extended family far away......those that I am interested in are short driving distance away....anyone else gets a periodical phone call..........read books, take pics with camera don't watch much tv, most movies nowadays are junky....so I guess I am a "cave dweller".........but I do have a computerized sewing machine and a good stash of fabric and many quilt books/mags so that is my entertainment.

3 people, 4 desktop computers, 2 laptops (one from work), 2 printers, maybe 4 iPods, 2 GPS cell phones, 1 Wii. Something like that...... We actually use all the computers for various tasks almost every day (dh works from home several days a week, plus we are starting a retirement home business).
