For example, I mainly use my HTC Touch Pro2. It's a lemon of a phone, but the built-in version of Opera manages this perfectly. Sometimes I use my tower, but that's normally just for profile stuff suchas avatars and uploading images.

So what do you use? Laptop? netbook? tower? phone? iDevice?

nearly. i did a quick search and couldn't find anything, but wasn't sure how to phrase it. i'm trying to ask what device, as in, you use a bookmark, but i'm trying to discern "bookmark on what?" on your desktop pc?
afraid i'm always rather vague in writing and always end up writing far too much to try and make my point clear :/

You could also add a poll to your question - Creating and Participating in Polls

For example: Ask your question "What device do you use seven forums on?" with Laptop, netbook, tower, phone, iFad, slate being the choices.

I visit this forum with my tower mostly, but I do check in with my netbook once in a while as well....and I have visited with my iPod Touch once or twice. I have the site bookmarked with both computers.

Thanks for the idea. Unfortunately the poll option doesn't seem to be in the edit mode for the first post :/

(I found the 'iFad' joke funny :P. Never heard that one before actually :) )

Yea I guess you need to do when you first create your thread then the option will be at the bottom of the page.

To answer your original question I only own Desktops but have twice the likelihood of requiring the assistance of this forum due to the fact the user (Me) can tinker with both the Hardware and Software.

They both roughly have good specs (Core i7, ATI Graphics).

Bear in mind, I'm on a discrete model (2006) runs on really slow Core 2 Duo CPU. It originally shipped with OS X Tiger.

They both roughly have good specs (Core i7, ATI Graphics).

Bear in mind, I'm on a discrete model (2006) runs on really slow Core 2 Duo CPU. It originally shipped with OS X Tiger.

Yeah, the discrete line was a small step back, but I suppose it did carve the way for greatness...
At least it has a dual core processor! (my PC has the worlds worst Intel processor)
i7 in a laptop must be a lot of fun, but is it a battery killer?

Xperia X8
My home pc.

The Xperia X8 seems to be a pretty nice phone.
Your PC seems to have specs similar to mine (well, you have a better processor and your GPU beats my current one, but would be similar if I could fit a better PSU into my case to power my better one :P ) so I'm guessing it's not a bad experience on your PC.

Acer Laptop and iPhone 3GS

Doesn't sound like too bad a laptop (I've always had issues with Acer build quality). iOS isn't too bad a platform for this forum, but the spelling correction often gets in the way.
