Computer. I don’t have the attention span for a lot of television I need something more interactive. My family has also become dependant on the computer for information, travel arrangements, financial transactions, shopping…
I do remember though when my oldest dd was a baby someone said that it wouldn’t be long before every home had a computer and was wired for internet, I thought they were crazy. I also rememember being in complete awe when someone my dad worked with was showing off his car phone, now to think our kids now not only have their own pocket phones but some even have internet on them. :
My computer.
I love TV – but I could get my favorite show on-line. I love my computer and the ability to stay in “instant” contact with family or friends. Being able to find information and shop online!
My computer!!! Especially since I can now watch Survivor on-line!
Since September I have watched very little tv. I check the websites to see when the few shows I like will be on.
I have to have a computer for my work from home job.
Computer because I can get all the shows I watch on line. Which is where I usually watch them anyway. lol
Computer!! I can watch all my shows there!!
computer
Computer. I can’t imagine not being able to email and read blogs.
Computer, hands down!
Computer! I’m sure I could find my favorite shows on the internet somewhere.
Computer!!!
A computer. Because you know… you can get TV on your computer.

Computer! We don’t have cable and rarely have the tv on. The kids like to watch movies, but we can do that on the computer also.
Computer…can watch & see anything I am interested in.
May be a new way to cut some cost!!!
Computer!
Computer, for sure!
Computer, absolutely.
Computer no contest. Much more I can do with a computer than the TV.
you always have such hard curiousity questions woman!
definitely computer because you can now watch shows on them.
Computer! I don’t watch much television and you can always watch online. Plus, with no computer how could I lurk on everyone’s sites.
Computer. Blogs beat tv hands down. 🙂
My first thought was TV! But on a computer u can watch tv AND do all ur surfing so.. COMPUTER!
Computer. If the Farmer is not home, the TV is not on. I don’t watch TV.

Computer! TV is entertaining, but the computer is so much more.
I couldn’t live with out my computer. And since we are too cheep to pay for cable we do all our tv watching on-line. Hulu.com rocks!!!
Far be it for me to break the trend (I wann’a be popular, too!). Computer, definitely! The only thing that might change my mind would be if I could get “Poirot” on TV whenever I wanted it. As a matter of fact, I’m currently suffering withdrawal symptoms since the BIO channel stopped running Poirot every Sun. afternoon. Any ideas where I can get my fix? I’m already into the shakes and sweating stage.
You could purchase all the Poirot shows on DVD.
You could borrow them from the library.
You could so something lovely for your sweet wife.
You could clean out the garage (if you have one).
Mop the floor?
Do a load of laundry?
Dishes?
Pick up your socks?
If I could get the DVR capabilites and extended cable on my computer…then I’d say computer. But, I’d have to say computer anyway…I don’t think I could live without it now……
Computer, not only because I can watch just about any tv show on it, but I couldn’t live without my photo editing software or my movie software. I am always loading pictures and video and creating stuff.
Let’s see now, CC;
I’m waiting to buy 135 episodes for a small fortune,
library doesn’t have them….., doing things for my lovely wife helps…., garage in the spring…, floor? Do what??….., laundry..did that last night….., dishes..have a dishwasher….., socks…I usually just buy more.
P.S. I meant 35 episodes, not 135.
The library has this wonderful thing called “interlibrary loans” which means you can order any episode you want and they will get it from a different library.
cousin Jerry…..you never answered my question…what year were you born????
Don’t even have to give it a second thought. Most definitely my computer.
computer!
I’ve already chosen my computer.
Gramps, 1950(I was kidding about “MUCH older” thing.)
CC, I’ll try the intra-library loan thing. But, I won’t be able to borrow just one. I need a whole afternoon’s worth.
Then about 10 would do.
Definitely Computer! Almost anything I would miss watching on TV I would be able to watch on the computer the next day!
Easy – Computer hands down. I can get what I want off the computer plus more. The TV does not allow me to create anything but wasted time.
well, for me, it would be the computer, for my family it would be the tv. I couldn’t get thru a day without reading these blogs, or checking email & myspace & facebook. 🙂
Computer…not a big TV watcher.
Computer!
I think you can watch all most anything on the computer now a days.

computer of course! I can watch tv on it as well as movies.
Definitely a computer, it’s way more versatile.
Computer. You can get tv on it. Best of both worlds!
I too was going to say TV but I think really it would be the computer. You can get so much info from the computer, do your banking, keep in touch with friends and family (Hi Cousin Jerry!) and although I don’t think I would watch the computer as a tv it is an option!
Not to be outdone I have to say computer. Jerry, you never did answer Dean’s question.
Computer.
Without a doubt, my computer.
Computer wins, hands down.
Definitely, the computer!
