I voted 3 but one of those is off line as I'm sending to my wife's cousin who is financially impaired.

Very soon to be 3 (my wife says it's my Christmas present, but I have a hunch it'll be up and running before that :D) but only two monitors and not enough space. I'll probably end up retiring the old Win98 box that my kids use. Then again, I haven't had much luck with the old Duke Nuke'Em III on XP, so that alone may keep it around a bit longer.

I said 3 because I have 3 computers that we use. I have one more mostly assembled without XP on it that I had to get working to transform the data from windows 95/98 to windows XP version of the same program. Never know when you need a throwback computer.

My PC count will remain at 3. My coworker is outright giving me his old Gateway P4 laptop. I just found out an hour ago. :cool:

Yah, I finally get to catch a break for a change. I've worked for this one though. I've helped him with his doctoral thesis several times now. If he decides to build his beowulf cluster then I'll get to help him again. I'm his "tech". :p

My main system, down at the moment since I had to RMA the board, my parents' system in their room, and 2 systems that I don't have an OS installed in, those are in varying states of disrepair as to the hardware being together :p

Also, my laptop that my sister has at her house since I didn't need it. Doesn't exactly count for household though.
