[Nightwalker]

I think you mean "Canda" lol

[.Renn.Sport]

when i first saw asian_XL's post. i thought the title read 87.6 computers per 100 ppl in CHINA

[hotjoint]

interesting

[Ludepower]

basically everyone in Canada has a computer? I highly doubt that...

[Presto]

Well, a lot of people have more than one. I have 7. My parents have 2. Even my sister has 3.

[eddoe]

Same. I've got 3 computers + 2 laptops + 2 old, useless computers for a 4 person family.

yea almost all of my friends have a desktop and a laptop

i'm a lowly soul with just a desktop....

[!Aznboi128]

That's bull shit between me and my gf we have 8 computers (desktop laptops mac and netbooks)

Probably includes babies/children.

I'm guessing the avg. adult has 1.5 - 2 computers.

[StaxBundlez]

i dont get it

[loafer80]

not surprised. i have 2desktop, laptop, netbook

[twitchyzero]

surprised Canada is in 2nd place

[Presto]

You'd think Korea would be somewhere near the top. They're all hardcore WoW players multi-boxing their twinks.

exactly..and i was expecting taiwan to be in the top 10 as well, but it's not even on there lol. Must be all countryside hicks.

[q0192837465]

Why would a person need more than 1 computer? 1 desktop + 1 laptop is understandable. But 8? Am I missing something?

[d1]

GOO HONG KONG!!!! 1 city beat out countries

It's the amount of computers per 100 people, not the total amount of computers in an area. My neighborhood can have 200 computers per 100 people and we'd "beat out" every country.

Freelance animators have plenty for their render farm. The more PCs they have, the faster they can minimize their render times.

[johny]

I work with lots of people who have still never turned on a computer let alone own one. these are people in there 50's - 60's making $100k-200k. they don't need computers and will probably never have one.

[m!chael]

Go Israel

rofl somebody fails at common sense

[PiuYi]

this isn't a good thread until somebody posts a cartoon from apple news explaining the situation

[KingDeeCee]

I don't think we're on that list. I can't find it anywhere. Canda seems pretty good though. Number two and I never heard of it.

[shenmecar]

Mystery country Canda.............

[wahyinghung]

What Israel Beat us I meant Canda:D!!!!!!!!!!

[scheng924]

hmm.. interesting stats.....
surprising results for sure i would think a lot of asian countries would beat out this mysterious canda ...... i thought canda sounds like a middle earth country or something.. hmmm guess they're pretty tech savvy

[silva95teg]

It is from 2006, it is probably 200 to 100 now.

[asian_XL]

^ werd...almost every fucking single person has a nettop nowaday

[mickz]

Canda is in Italy you guys.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Canda

[Durrann1984]

can u guys believe it?
i use to use dial up

now probably every person who has a computer uses fast speed broadband

[silva95teg]

Canda is in Italy you guys.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Canda

Maybe that's the place but they only have 900 people, so i kind of doubt they would be on the survey but who knows for sure.

[q0192837465]

No shit, who hasnt used dial up before

[AzNightmare]

Wow, you guys have so many computers.
I only have one. Any old ones, I pass it off to my siblings who will then have one.

Why do you guys need so many computers for?

[shenmecar]

to watch multiple pornos at one time.

[asian_XL]

PC - in my room
HTPC - for the family
laptop - for work
PDA phone - for portable porn

[KingDeeCee]

Canda is in Italy you guys.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Canda


No fucking wonder they are number two. Only 900 people. Phffff.

[Durrann1984]

No shit, who hasnt used dial up before

haha wat i meant was ...
remember the times we used dial up

[asian_XL]

okay, if Canda is a typo, then we are all fucking losers...or NCIX should close down, cause no one buys a computer here.

[InvisibleSoul]

I can't see why they would include a municipality amongst all the countries.
