Technology Through Our Eyes

I admit im an addict, I am addicted to my PC, there are so many things to do on a PC its hard not to get addicted at first i was addicted to on-line gaming, i found several on-line gaming sites that i liked to play on and even subscribed to some of them but in the end i was having problems they kept on constantly updating their Web Design and my poor old pc couldn't keep up with the new fan dangled web design, i upgraded my computer so it had more ram and still kept playing my subscriptions to these on-line gaming sites, within a couple of months though they had updated the web design again and my old PC couldn't cope again.

My partner said he would by me a laptop and i could throw my old pc away but i was reluctant to do so just because it didn't cope with the on-line gaming sites didn't mean it wasn't still working the web design for those sites have a lot of content and it was the content of that web design that my computer didn't like.

When i got my laptop i still kept my old pc as i thought the kids could use it for homework and such, it was a good job i did, within 3 months of getting my laptop the screen which was an LCD screen imploded neither the makers nor the shop wanted to take responsibility for it and after shelling out £500 for the laptop i didn't have the £650 that the makers wanted to replace the screen it was a ridiculous price.

It was a good job i kept my old pc, unfortunately it meant that i would have to give the on-line gaming sites a miss for a while so i turned my attention to the on-line shopping sites, especially those with an auction, I was addicted with in a short time, these On-line Shopping sites are so much cheaper than going down to the nearest store, at Xmas time i did all my Xmas shopping on these on-line shopping sites, how i know i am an addict is not only do i do clothes shopping at on-line shopping sites which is acceptable but so i don't have to go out and leave my pc for too long i even go onto the on-line shopping sites and do my grocery shopping, i need help is there a meeting i can attend has anyone ever died from an addiction to their computer lol, its not a bad addiction but i am starting to forget what the outside world looks like and now think its time to reach for the off button.
