Age And Gender Of Users?
« on: December 13, 2005, 08:50:02 pm »
I have been wondering what many Zaurus users are like, gender and age specifically. I dont know if anyone else cares but i guess we will see by the number of people that vote. You dont have to reply but it would at least be nice if you would vote.

I did not know how to do it any other way so people will have to vote twice. Once for age and once for gender. Thanks.

Well guess that does not work well since people can only vote once.  I guess people can have there choice of telling age or gender and not both. haha.

- There's a thread around there somewhere that was started a long time ago, which has posts from about 40 users or so.  'Fraid I can't suggest what to search on, but it's there, and give you some idea of the cross-section of the forum...

Well as I don't believe I partook in  the old post and I'm in a bit of a maudlin mood I'll bite.

In my household we have 4 Zaurus users, 3 Females and with me bringing up the minority as the only male.
My daughter's use identical SL-5500's with 256mb SD cards, 1gb CF cards (flash only they don't need to have moving parts in them when they get knocked around inside of purses etc. so no Microdrives for THEM!) and D-Link DCF-660W's.
My wife has taken to occasionally knocking around with one of my SL-6000L's while chatting about the day in our bedroom etc. to surf the net with and check her email.  She uses a Sony Clie as her primary machine as she's a nurse and relies heavily on a Palm OS only program called Epocrates(and no it won't work on the emulators I tried. Well it used to about two years ago it did but then about 15 upgrades ago they screwed up any hope of emulator compatibility).
Then of course I use my SL-6000L and SL-C3100 daily for my mission critical apps such as Doom II (just started the Doom II wads, I'm working my way through while immersed in a nostalgia based high!)etc. As most of you know who actually know me well I spend most of my time pursuing elusive ways to brick my Z's that nobody has come up with yet.  I'm a true pioneer.

Cheers!,

Probably because you voted for your age first and you can only vote once? Or maybe it's rigged to suppress female voters?    (just a joke)

I'm 19 years old and male.
Sounds like a personal ad  

I have, both a 5500 and a c1000, currently being fixed in japan.  Although most of my time spent with my z's involves fiddling with 'em to see how I can "improve" them...  I do use it for more constructive things...  Like surfing the forum .  

It's amazing how much more experimental you become with your older models when you get a C1000.  I think I've flashed my 5500 5-10 time in the past week and taken it apart to see the potential for modding.  First time I took something electronic apart and it still functioned on its return to being complete.  Yay

Heh... I'm not that old, but my first computer came with just 4K of memory and the 4K memory expansion (giving  a whopping 8K) cost me £25, or about US$45. Given inflation, that's about £60 or US$90 in today's money. That's the equivalent of £10 per K, or £10000 per megabyte, or £10M per gigabyte, compared to about £70 per gigabyte at the moment. I literally built it with a soldering iron - even the keyboard was a kit of switches.

My first printer was an old teletype ASR33, printing at 10 chars per second.

Kids today, they don't know how lucky they are
