Also a laptop, but it just finally kicked the bucket last week.

11 that are actually within visual arms reach without opening a draw or making any effort at all.

If I had to count up all the ones in everything I can see just from my desk, including those in things that are in boxes then the number starts to get silly.

It's quite amazing when you think about it. Cordless phone - 2 * CPU because the base unit has one as well... ATA --> wifi AP --> Modem... I have two cordless phones, one for each line, so suddenly the phone now has 5 CPUs (because one cordless has 2 handsets). The microwave is sitting on the bench...

The list goes on and on.
