In honour of my wireless router that decided to die in the middle of the night (thanks Belkin!):

1. If you run a network in your home, is it wired or wireless?

2. Mac or PC?

3. What brand(s) of computing equipment do you REFUSE to use? Why?

4. Where do you purchase most of your equipment from?

5. Anywhere irritate you so much you won’t do business?

6. Are extended warranties worth it?

7. Have you ever played solitaire with real cards because your computer was down?

8. Ever suffered from withdrawals because the network was down?

9. Have you ever cancelled plans because you were having computer issues that you just had to solve?

10. Ask me something.
