    Do you use a wireless network for the PC you're currently surfing on?
    Do you use a wireless keyboard and/or mouse?

    I'm always on a desktop so I prefer to keep it wired. I was never a big fan of a wireless connected desktop, but notebooks make more sense. :)

    My wireless keyboard died, but I'm still using an MX1000 mouse.

    This is PC only, not game console related. Otherwise I'd throw in my wireless Xbox 360 controllers, wheel, cell phone, toothbrush and razor just for the hell of it.

    I have wireless for my laptop, all my other (5 or so that are actually plugged in right now) computers are hardwired and/or KVM'd. I'm hoping to get a badass 8 port KVM sometime soon so I can get rid of some extra M/Kb. I just don't like wireless crap. Too paranoid. I'm a bit of a luddite after a certain point - I still use all PS2 stuff also =D

    I have:
    -Wireless home network
    -Wireless Mouse
    -Wireless stereo system

    The stereo system is actually decent. Now if it would just random playback across the network, I'd be set.

    All desktop computers are wired, most use a wired keyboard and mouse except for one (not my main one). I use wireless for my laptop and the only other thing thats wireless is my bluetooth stereo headset.

    I prefer a wired network myself and as I continue remodeling my house I'm wiring up each room.
