There is no limit to the upgrades in the area of technology - be it mobiles, computers the works. I am averse to upgrades. As long as one is able to work efficiently on the Net I find no reason to just upgrade for the sake of upgrades. There are so many new features one does not normally make use of.

I have two feature phones and a desktop computer and I am doing well with these gadgets. I have a digital Sony camera that takes care of my passion for photography.

I am definitely gizmo crazy. I always want to buy the latest and greatest technology. I've got tons and tons of different electronics. Plenty of TVs, monitors, speakers, gaming consoles, soundbars, headphones, earbuds, computers, etc. I've got so many different things that I never use.

:dancing-pug:This is how I felt reading your post. Here I am with just a feature phone, a desktop and a camera - quite happy with my collection

Do you use all the features that are provided in your mighty gizmo collection? :unsure:

I don't, but I like to pull different things out every once in a while and verify they still work. Maybe I'll be entertained by whatever it is for a good 30 minutes or so, then I'll sit it somewhere and not touch it again for many months.

I am, but I'm not in a position to afford gizmos these days, so I'm mostly a window-shopper gizmo freak, lol. If I could, I would, but...I can't, so I admire :)

As I have said in my post it is not necessary to own countless gadgets to be able to do what we want to.

Oh absolutely, it's very easy to continue on with life without them, but I'd be lying if I said they didn't interest me :D

I don't upgrade for the sake of upgrades, but due to my hobbies/interests, I have different needs than someone who just uses a computer just to browse the internet.

I also work in IT, and end up with setups at home that the average person doesn't need. I also keep up with current operating systems to keep up to date on my job knowledge.
