We have side by side computers, LOL. The family that "surfs" together, etc. There are three people in our home and we have three computers, that keeps everybody happy!
Our house, too: his and hers laptops, the only way to go.
And to think I resisted learning to use a computer when Mr. Otta and I got married 17 years ago. Now I couldn't get through the day without one!
Four people and four computers. And two of those have an 8:00 bedtime! We still fight over the "big ones." But the laptops are portable and on the wireless LAN!
Two PCs and an iMac in the office (long L-shaped desk) and laptop in livingroom, tastefully placed on the endtable next the to wall next to the sidechair.
