Desktop, at least 2 hours a day. I feel if I am not at the desktop I am not being productive, but 2+ hours daily productivity is great.

Laptop/tablet/phone/etc. Looking for inspiration, browsing, stuff like that. I would say sometimes more time may be spent here, but it probably is also 2 hours.

TV I try to avoid. I like to watch a few teams and catch some games here and there. Mostly movie time, so another solid 2 hours in this category.

6-8 hours easily, and I always feel like I could double this and still wake up the next morning with a full checklist of things to accomplish.

This is an interesting question, but could we make this into a real poll? I'm happy to do this (you need above a certain karma threshold to create polls - I forget what it is) but if the OP would rather not then that's fine too, and I'll leave it.

Please do alexholehouse. I actually was trying to finish it and the system wouldn't let me add another comment.

I've been working on a project recently and have spent around 12+ hours a day coding, but then my leisure time is spent watching TV or playing a video game. I was curious to know how that compared to the folks in this forum.
