Gaming 90%
Email 10%
Everything else is on my iPad. Actually 95% or better of my computer usage is my iPad.

Gaming, web browsing and working (that means writing in Open Office:)). PC is my only tool for that. Don't own a tablet or laptop or console so PC is my entertainment and work center:)

I do my mild surfing at work (sue me :D) so the home PC is basically just there for games and administrative tasks

Gaming, browsing, some video editing and uploading, photo mgmt, anything requiring more than a few lines of text.
You still can't beat a desktop and mouse for browsing when shopping or needing a lot of tabs. I enjoy my tablet, but that just doesn't compare when you need a lot of info in front of you.
Typing on an actual keyboard is still king over predictive text and touchscreens.

Gaming 20% Browsing 50% Other stuff 30% Don't have any other "computing device" except a MAME cabinet which lately is taking 100% of gaming time, but it's expected to be temporal. 
When you're feeling sad, just remember that somewhere in the world, there's someone pushing a door that says "pull".

99% gaming. The rest is web surfing, usually Steam. I don't game like I used to, but still enjoy the time I do. iPad gets way more time for surfing, email and research.
