I can't. Recently I got some problem with my monitor and It took almost two weeks to repair it.
These days were like hell for me. I just can't concentrate to anything. Days were passing but I was not enjoying at all.
When my monitor was repaired( I thank my bro for that, without his help it couldn't have been done), I feel like I am back in my life.

NO! I can't do without my PC. I work on it, research on it, and play on it. Everything I do is on there basically. Except the gym and family interactions. Even alot of my friends are online. Ugh!

Hello sanuanu! I can't say that I can't live without computer. I had lived most of my life without computer ( I just recently got my own computer last September). I would say that my life wouldn't be the same without computer. It's really helpful to me and I spend most of the in the computer.

I think I can do my bunisness without computer. I can read a book I like or listen to the music...however, if my computer is wrong, I must repair it first. maybe I'll have the same feelings with you. because I won't know what happened on my friends.

So, basically, it is just about writing articles. It is not about web programming and all because once I have been a member of Getafreelncer.com and that website only requires programmer to get a job with. There also we were supposed to bid on projects.
Thank you for the piece of information. So, do you have writers under you?

Yes, I have some writers under me and I am always in need of new writers. :-) Well, the getafreelancer website isn't just for programmers, it's for a lot of different things and they are all sorted by catagory. (Just look in "browse projects). The catagories you should be looking under for clients is: SEO, Copywriting and possibly even proofreading. I'm here if you have anymore questions.

I can live without my computer, but I'd rather not. Some years back my computer crashed and I didn't have the money for repairs or a new one. So I did without one for almost a year. It was hard at first but after a couple of months it didn't matter much. However these days I use my computer alot more so I'd rather not live without one if possible.

Hey,
Honestly, I don't know what I would do without my computer. Most days I get yelled at by my parents and they always like shouting even if their is a fly in the house. That is when I find my relaxation in the computer. If you combine the computer with the Internet it is actually quite good. With us being able to access the Internet via our computers makes it like a non boring machine. Honestly, if there was no INTERNET, I would go mad. I am not lying, just going on my computer without the Internet is actually quite boring I have realised over time. So with the combination of the Internet with the computers, it makes it really hard to live without my computer. Even when my parents threaten that they will take away my computer, I feel really bad and I beg them not to take it. My computer is basically my companion :P

Well , live without computer? Yes. Even though there are many helpful and fun things on the web that i like, i am not obsessed or depend on the computer every minute of my life. There are too many things to do in life, and people won't die just because they don't have a intelligent machine functioning almost as their second brain. I think the computers have taken over the human mind like televisions. No offesne but if you ask some fellow Americans in my country to step away from the tv or a comp. for a year, i doubt they will part ways.

Another yes. Well, people are there who can afford living without computer. Well, I also want to be like you. I don't like being addicted to computer. I can remember, when I needed to go to another city for a week or two. I didn't have laptop, so, I needed to be there without my pc. It was very tough for me. The first thing I did after coming back from there was sitting on my pc and surfing the net.

Definitely i can live without it. I think its just a matter of adjusting like when i don't used to have computer before, it was fine and no problem. Maybe if in the near future that i don't have computer then i guess i have to accept it and get used to it. It maybe hard without it but there is no permanent thing in this world so i will have to adjust and move on. I know it will be hard for me not having computer because its my bread and butter now but if things change like not having it then maybe i will have to find another source of income which simply means that life has to go on and that life is like that.

It will be tough for sure. People are of different kind. I can't live without it or I will feel sick without my pc. I think I am going to buy a laptop for me, which will be private to I.
I just wish that I don't get out of my pc or laptop in my life. Please God.

If it my personal computer then I guess I can survive without it, there is always the TV to watch, or DVD, or books to read. But if it the computer at work then I would really be in a frenzy, every hour that I don't get to work on my computer means loads and loads of paperwork that I will have to finish once my computer gets fixed. Most of my work is connected to the computer so I really have to have my laptop functioning well

i dont think i could survive without it as i like to talk to my friends and family on msn and using the computer is earning me small amounts of money on the side.

I don't think I could and I'll gladly tell you why. Life would be so dang boring. I mean, I live out in the middle of nowhere. What would I do? Read a book? No freaking way is that happening. The internet is my source of entertainment and I earn money off of here sometimes. Also, my friends keep in touch w/ me and what not. Not to mention playing games and reading up on the news. The computer and internet alone is a wonderful tool.

Reading a book was the best hobby, I had before my pc arrived in my house. Now a days, people get connected via only internet. I haven't had received any letters from my friends for years now. Again, I am doing my business over computer, so...
Did you mention video game on PC?
