What can't you do without that you use? Computer wise. Nothing that is actually part of the computer though (GPU, processor, etc). Speakers? Monitor? etc.

For me I would have to say my Klipsch Promedias. You?
 
I have a Unicomp Customizer (black) but I'd settle for any IBM Model M or equivalent.
 
Memtest 86, i would be in so many holes wihout that,

but on hardware side, my microsoft natural 4000 keyboard. Only the best will do
 
I'm really missing my speakers, they won't get here until the end of November. :(
 
Right now, just my Logitech G5.

I had a Logitech Elite keyboard before that was practically perfect, but I got a G15 and it's good too. :)
 
High speed internet service.... :D

But on the hardware side, though, I love my multifunction laser printer -- and I used all of its functions (print, scan, copy) for the greater part of two years now. (Did I mention that I also got it on sale at the time?) I would hate to have to replace it anytime soon.
 
yea, have to agree about high speed internet.. just got a 6meg down .5meg up and it makes life so much easier... second place have to say my 21inch monitor
 
All you guys lovin' your large CRT monitors :p I like my 2x 19" LCD setup right now :cool:
 
It would really suck not having speakers. I play games, watch movies, and listen to music with my PC, so it wouldn't be enjoyable without speakers. Broadband would be difficult to live without, too.
 
Have to say highspeed internet. I just couldn't go back to dialup. After that I guess my 23inch apple lcd. Much rather use it then a small monitor
 
Good ol' mouse and a keyboard, its nearly impossible for me to play any games and not suck using a controller! Got to have my mouse and keyboard!
 
Keyboard seems to get a lot of votes. Hope my DiNovo Cordless desktop is worth this vote (when I get it).
 
my audio drivers are messed up, and i can't hear sound, so i'm missing that.

but i couldn't do without my wireless headphones.
 
Wired headphones would both me, too constraining. That's why I like my speakers :D

My 3007FPW. 24" monitors just seem so small now.

I could do without the 3007FPW... in fact, I gave mine away :eek: ok ok, it was a bday present for someone, lol. I like my dual 20" monitor setup better, though.

Trackball. No mice for me.

Yay! Another trackball fan! Great for CAD and other types of graphic work where lifting the mouse is a no-no. :cool:

Why would they make it with such outdated technology? :p

I think I would stop using computers before I would go back to a CRT, but that is a topic for another thread.
