Americans spend more time with their computer than spouse

From Lifehacker:
A recent "Cyber Stress" study shows that 65% of Americans spend more time on their computers than with their spouses. The study also found:
The average consumer has experienced computer troubles eight times - about every four months - over the last three years.
The average American is wasting 12 hours per month - the equivalent of half a weekend - due to problems with their home computer.
And my personal favorite:
A majority of Americans (52%) describe their most recent experience with a computer problem as one of anger, sadness or alienation.
Oh, and don't let this poll make you late to dinner with your wife/hubby. — Gina Trapani
