We have 2 desktops we still use, one my son uses the most because it has the
nicest graphics card for really graphics intensive games, and the other used for general computer use, but also has an upgraded graphics cards due to my daughters desire to play moderate level games, like roblox and minecraft.

Wife uses a macbook air and an MSI gaming laptop for her work stuff. The MSI was bought because she just wanted something that was powerful, had a nice screen, felt solid, and could do all her creative desktop publishing and video editing stuff. I guess she also has her previous lenovo laptop too, which still works good. Its a 2 in 1 laptop/windows tablet with a touchscreen that folds all the way back and has a nice pen for drawing/ and signatures. That doesn't get used much anymore except for watching videos on it.

And I have my work laptop and another personal MSI gaming laptop, that I like for some gaming and general entertainment use.

oldest daughter has an ipad she uses for most of her entertainment. youngest daughter likes to watch videos and listen to the music on a few of the google home displays we have.

And we all use iphones.

I'm still pretty cautious about content and access, so we have a few filtering pieces set up to try to reduce the kids exposure to bad stuff.

Overall I'd say we still use screens too much, and try to find reasons to get away and do stuff outside.
