yeah.. but i did it only because we had to rush, 2 days before defense. so my partner and i had to rush things. but hey, i'm still happy we did coz we're the only pair in the whole class. other groups consist of more than 3 members. and we still managed to get high scores in our defense. c",)

How long? Well, I really cannot tell. I can stay as long as my eyes can bear. In my current job, I would stay 9-11 hrs per day.. when i arrive home, back to my PC again...
Before, as a freelance programmer, i can stay infront of my PC for more than a day, eating infront of the PC, then a 2-3 hours nap would be enough to regain my stamina. Then, back to the PC again..

Well, you still be careful because you might lose your clear eyesight. It's bad to stay in the computer for a long time.

That's too long, it's a good thing you still have clear eyesight.

It's hard to say beacuse I work 8 hours a day on the computer and then sometime go home and do stuff for about 1 - 2 hours. Mainly though, after 8 hours of working in front of a PC, I'm tired of staring at one so I'll do something else at home.

I see. So that's why you're taking so much time infront of a PC. What do you do for a hospital with an internet?

In the last few years, I would say on average I spend 1-2 hours on the computer. It is completly dependent on the day, and situation I am in of course.
When I was young, and addicted to online war games. I would spend up to 10hrs+ a day in the summer. lolz. This invariably couldn't last though.

I could also say that human can only stay about that long. (10hrs). But somehow, some people could stay longer. (as seen in others responses). What games are you into?

Call me nerd or crazy or a geek but still I won't quit. Haha! But hey, stick to where you're happy right!?! Anyways, read this discussion that I've posted for more info of how addicted I'am on the computer. www.mylot.com/w/discussions/926938.aspx

I can stay in front of my computer for a day. I did that last Wednesday when I was online for more than 12 hours. But it's kind of tiring to the eyes so I take a break every now and then. But if I have classes I can only stay in the computer for about 4-6 hours or sometimes even less.

My profession is closely related to computers and so it is quite obvious that I had to spend a lot of time in front of the computer and that is the reason I don't even bother to check how much time I spent in front of the computer. But yes it would be definitely more than 10 hours because I give some time at my home and also lay them in front of the computer at my office for over nine hours. And now I am very much used to it and I feel very incomplete when I don't get a computer in front of me.

10-12 hrs a day on the computer? C'mon man you got to pull away. You will realize that there are better things in lyfe then online gaming N it is not worth it just pissing your time away. I used to do that shyt, but you just can't maintain it, and let it engulf your life.
At least in between gaming, try to go for a walk or something. Try to clear your head. Try to find other activites, and try to shorten game time to a few hours. Someone needs to tell you.

Before we had our own internet connection at home I used to rent computer in cafes averaging at about 2-3 hours a day and up to 7 hours at certain times. Now that I can connect whenever I wish, I usually spend 10 hours/day when I have nothing else to do all day.
I really love the internet, playing online games, watching movies, downloading softwares, discovering new stuff, etc.. and that my friend really consumes a lot of my time much especially if I feel like typing here in myLot. There's this one time, no, actually several instances that I had stayed in front of the computer for as long as 36 straight hours with only comfort room breaks in-between and I had to eat my meals and snacks in front of the computer like him. After that, it felt like that I had sand in my eyes and my feet were starting to complain with that pins and needles sensation.
hehehe, can't keep that up or my body will burn out before I even know it.. (?_?)

KI spend in an average of 3 hours pr day infront of computer. I an spend more than that, but my family members start asking me to stop, as it will affect my health. Sometime I spend 4-5 hours with taking breaks in the middle.
