I used to only get 5 hours a night but I've decided that it wasn't healthy and have been getting 8 hours a night now.... I love it. I'm actually getting more done every day because I work more efficient. GET MORE SLEEP!

I try to get more sleep, but I end up stairing at the celling for an hour or 2 if I try to go to bed before Midnight. I rather stay up and play or watch TV or read or something :-)

PitaBred, I recommend a good scope, that way you can hit them from a 100 yards without even hearing them http://forums.windrivers.com/cgi-bin/forum/smile.gif But seriously, just go postal one night, noise level goes down for 2-3 months, then do it again.

I get any where from 3-7 hours a night, it realy depends on how into a game I get. If I don't start playing a game that night, I could go to bed by 11 or 12, if I do start playing a game, It could be 3 or 4 am.

It isn't healthy, and on saturday I usualy sleep until 1 or 2, thats my catch up day.

I try for about 7 hours a night. Love to sleep in on the weekends cause I go to bed really late, never seem to be able to, though. I hear it's even worse when you have kids.

[Fierce1]

Well, i get about 5 as well. Work 10hr days, come home eat, play comp. games with my 3yr old, study, and go to bed. Its been that way for about 1yr now. And weekends dosen't change anything, I have odds and ends, and now since its the holiday season, XMAS shopping and family visitng eats up my learning time. But I wouldn't do it, if I did't love what I do!!

[Snommis69]

After I get home from work, create some kind of food and eat, get my 2 kids to bed and clean up, I finally get to my computers. Usually around 10. Depending on what I am into at the moment, I may be up till 3. Then up at 6 to do it all over again. Did I mention that in between my 6 month old daughter wakes up for a bottle? Actually, I am amazed I have time to make kids....Hmmmmm...I think they look like me....

Ah yes, I remember the days where the PC to preference to sleep, If a disaster happened with it I pulled allnighters to fix it.

I used to wake up in the middle of the night with programming code in my brain which I had to write down right away.

now I have a full time help desk job which I stuggle to be outgoing with, and that wears me out, I still love the pc I just turn the moniter off and go to bed remembering that I got to get up the next morning.
