      How many tabs do you have open at a time?

      More than 20. But that's less than a casual user. Tabs open is one of those things that power users do less, not more, than casual users.

      really?

      I probably have 10+ tabs... but my users are abnormal if they have more than 3.

        I find the opposite, users tend to leave anything and everything open.

          Thats my experience as well.

            Most users in my office don't even understood what a tab is. When MS changed the way icons worked on the start bar, i.e. no longer opened a new window each time you click on it. They discovered that they can get a whole new window if they choose IE from the start menu on windows 7. This stopped working for Win 10 unless you pin IE to the start menu.

              I definitely never spend time or money replacing hard drives. This is not at all on my radar as a cost center.

                Only 10? I've got 12 on one monitor and 15 in the other at the moment, and this is what I call relaxing at home 😛

                    when is the last time you had to replace a hard drive?

                    I had one done a couple hours ago. My team replaces drives daily 🙂

                    I reworded the OP, it wasn't adequately clear that this is only a question about desktop hard drives.

                      I hate opened tabs. I love tabbed browsing but I as soon as I am done with something I need to clear it out. I get anxious if I have too many open.

                        Same here. Open tabs are the devil.
