just curious if all the members here in mylot have their own computer or renting it?how much do you pay if you are renting it?or your montly bill if you own one?
me i dont own a computer but lucky me i am working in an internet cafe so i really have the time to surf in the internet but every sunday i cant really online because its my dayoff and all i do is rest spent time with my family, it really do saves money in working in a cafe since i dont pay for the internet bills neither the computer usage.

in my homeland it's way cheaper to rent one. it's like $ 3 for 8 hrs a day with internet connection and I can download music save files and add any program I like plus anti virus etc. But now here I use my hubby's because he only uses it for games I thought might as well we use internet connection, it's costing us $ 50/ month so it's cheaper to own. The comp itself lasted for 2 - 5 yrs so not bad deal I'd say.

I used to go to internet cafes to surf the net. It's nice that you work in one, so surfing the net is not a problem for you. Normally, internet cafes in our area charge 25 pesos per hour (around 50 cents) for internet surfing. Internet cafes are booming nowadays because a lot of people still have no computer at home or they may have one but it has no internet connection. The rent is also very affordable. But since December of last year, I subscribed to a broadband connection so I no longer have to go to internet cafes. I can now stay home and surf whenever I want because it's unlimited. I pay 1000 pesos a month (around 20 dollars) for the subscription fee.
