Windows XP - nope Winamp - nope (xmms) Some version of MS Office/Word - nope MSN Messenger - nope (I've got amsn )
Adobe Photoshop - not me
Adobe [Acrobat] Reader - [highlight]YES[/highlight]
Spyware on their PC - not me
Google Earth & Desktop can't have it, jealous
Mozilla Firefox (Admit it!) [highlight]YES[/highlight] Anti virus: - no viruses for me
My Sony Ericsson W800i shipping sticker adorns the right side of my 2nd monitor at work.
As for stuff everyone actually has on their PC, the first things I would say are:
Windows XP [YES]
Winamp [YES]
Some version of MS Office/Word [YES; Office 2003]
MSN Messenger [YES; but not the latest version]
Adobe Photoshop (Funny considering it costs £££ yet everyone seems to have it nowadays :rolleyes: ) [No, but I have PSP 7]
Adobe [Acrobat] Reader [The proper (yet ageing) version of Acrobat, Yes, Reader, no]
And i'm sure a lot of people have some form of Spyware on their PC [No, no crap whatsorever]
Things everyone should have on their PC:
Google Earth & Desktop [I have Earth but not Desktop; I don't fancy some external company poking around in my files]
Mozilla Firefox (Admit it!) [Yes, but I rarely use it; takes far too long to start up plus IE does what it says on the tin and is quick to open]
If you dont want to pay for Anti virus: Grisoft AVG Free Edition [No, I don't have AVG]
Google Earth is quite good but I can't see my home from the air because it's just a few metres out of range of the hi-res photo coverage.
Personally I wouldn't consider Firefox and Google Earth things that people should have on their PC. Only if you really have a use for it, then have it, but if not there's no point in clogging up your HD with programs you don't want/need or use.
As to what I have on my computer - a shed load of paper, some CDs and a mobile phone. On my screen I have some CDs that I play often placed sunny side up (bad I know but I can't find the boxes).
Personally I wouldn't consider Firefox a thing that people should have on their PCs *EDITED FOR CLARITY*
Um... why not? Firefox is infintely better than IE. I hardly even open IE now. The only reason I have it on the PC still is for some sites that require it, which are getting fewer and fewer...
Wayyy too tired to come up with a witty reply to the Firefox security stuff, so I'll just *chuckle* and use their own website against them: http://secunia.com/search/?search=internet+explorer
What's that? 176 security advisories? 110 more than Firefox?
Better go now, I'm at the stage where my eyes are making the monitor look HUGE in my brain and this is all seeming like a bad dream. Hate being this tired
Actually, MS office, also Openoffice, photoshop, PaintShopPro,Gimp,picasa2, Powercinema, RecordNow...................Ad-aware,MCAfee Firewall, Spybot, Avast, Spyware blaster, MS Antipyware...........Quake2, Post-it notes lite...........AOL, google earth, limewire,Mirc........1,657 of my digi photos.....probably a million other things
A better idea might be what FREE utilities, software do you have ??

Never understood the appeal of Linux -- but then I rely on some industry-standard apps to get my work done. There are no Linux versions of these.
I feel that Linux is for the tinkerer -- not necessarily for your average family computer.
and what is google desktop?
I rely on some industry-standard Linux apps to get my work done, and it's nice having the same look and feel at home.
I don't blame you for not being a GIMP fan, it does my head in.

Sadly (perhaps), there isn't a great call for graphic designers who know The Gimp inside out.
