It'll never happen. I won't let it.

Withdrawals from the PC world are actually quick and painless. After two days of camping you don't really care about you email or the forums anymore.

Longest I've done is about 5 or 6 weeks I think.

It's hard but it can be done.

I think I've gone for one or two weeks without computer access. Depending on why factors in on whether there is any withdrawal.

If I am stuck at a relatives with no computer access and bored out of my mind, then I go nuts.
If I am at a ski resort, ripping up the slopes with my snowboard, then I couldn't care less.

 

[FoBoT]

6-7 hours, tops

 

[Mavrick007]

A few days and then my email box overflows.. but I can live without it if I try hard enough.

 

[Snapster]

I dunno, I've done two weeks and my mailbox was huge when I got back from holiday.........though if I went without a computer normally, I'd get the sack!

 

[Aves]

Went on vacation to California & Mexico and didn't use one for 2 weeks. :Q

 

[MomAndSkoorbaby]

Can't...need laptop....send word to Skoorbie....

 

[sk560]

5-6 hrs.... when i'm sleeping.

 

[deerslayer]

Depends on what i'm doing. If i'm hunting, it can be done easily.

Went on vacation for a week last year and I thought I was going to lose my mind.

 

[Keego]

Depends if I have my GF nearby.

(she has a laptop too! WHEE!)

 

[kassy]

I will have access to a computer for 6 more days then I am facing 6 weeks without my babies....
Just thinking about it is stressing me out.

 

[Skel]

I went a week without a few years back... after a day or so, it turned out to be the best... now I have a laptop so I don't know how long I can go now...

 

[simms]

40 days, and 40 nights.

Oh wait, we're not talking about the same thing..

 

[Chaotic42]

Let's see...

I'll be in boot camp for 7 weeks, tech school for 48 weeks, so hopefully 56 weeks!
