Me, My Technology and I
I’ll happily admit to being a contradiction; I love my books, the old fashioned paper constructs pile high on my shelves, but I also love my technology and gadgets.
Whilst I wouldn’t say I’m at the forefront of what technology is available, I hoard what I have.
Let’s put together a list:
Mobile phones: My current phone is the HTC Desire, but I also still own my Sony Ericsson C902, K750i and an old Nokia.
Games consoles: Nintendo Game Boy Advance SP, Nintendo DSi XL, Nintendo Gamecube, Nintendo Wii, Sony PS2, an original 60GB PS3 (non working) a slimline PS3, a 2nd gen Sony PSP, and an original Xbox.
Computers: 6 year old Dell Inspiron 6000 laptop, and a year old Asus netbook. There is also my partner’s laptop and desktop PC, but I don’t need to use them!
Entertainment: The bluray on the PS3 warrants a decent TV, so there’s the 42″ Panasonic Viera plasma TV, with surround sound, plus a Panasonic HDD DVD, and Virgin Media Cable.
Music: I asked for a decent set of headphone for my last birthday, the stereo in my car has USB interface and plays MP3 files, and I have a 2nd gen Ipod Nano and an Ipod Shuffle.
We also have a Karcher pressure washer with a snow foam lance for the cars. Just because.
Not as much as some people, certainly, but that’s still a lot of cables and chargers that suck up electricity!
Sounds like quite a respectable list! I’d list mine to compare, but it’ll have to wait until I’m at a computer instead of my mobile phone… too much typing!
It’s amazing how quickly you can accumulate gadgets. It also unfortunately takes up a lot of space
but I love me gadgets.
