Ok i am doing a colleg research project on weather computers in society are an advantage or a disadvantage. To that end i have prepaired 10 questions. I would be apreciative if around 10 people could reply to this. Each question only requires an answer no  more then one to three sentances long. For the record, your names and any personal infomation which could be used to identify you will not be taken; there are no questions that will ask you for personal details of the kind that could be used to identify you.

Computers in Society questions

1.   Have computers improved your lifestyle?
2.   In what ways has it improved your lifestyle?
3.   What are your five main uses for your computer?
4.   What is your most hated aspect of the computer
5.   What is the main thing you would you change about your computer if you could?
6.   Has there been any negative impact on your life due to your computer?
7.   What about positive impact?
8.   Would your life be better or worse off if you never had a computer?
9.   How do you think computers are going to improve in the future?
10.   How far is to far when it comes to new technology? E.g. Integrating Computer chips into people so they can use there mind to talk to computers.   

thank you for taking time to answer the questions.
RIP DoktorMartini

I have a Seriously expensive machine sitting here, doing nothing, why? because with the Graphics card plugged in it won't turn on, a Friend of mine brought up a point, it might be that the PSU isn't enough so for the question ill give you the machines spec, then tell me if my PSU is the problem:
CPU: QX6850
GPU:EVGA 8800 ultra Blackpearl edition
HDD: Raptor X
MOBO:Asus Striker Extreme nForce 680
RAM: 4GB OCZ 2GB PC2-6400 CL 3 Flex XLC
PSU: OCZ GameXStream 850w Silent SLI Ready ATX2 Power Supply
So just to make sure you know what I'm asking, Is my PSU enough to power this rig? or is it not?
