I would be fine except I would be lonely - I rely on my phone to keep in touch with my mom and boyfriend, we talk multiple times a day.

The only electronics I like are my TV and my turn table. The only reason I use my computer is to make money with stuff like this and PTC sites. I dont have an Ipod, my phone is a brick and I'd rather not have one, yeah. I think its sad how everyone is so dependant on technology.

Yes I could live without the electgronics such as tv, radio, dvd, computers. I'm not so attached to these comforts that I couldn't give them all up for a season.

I think I could. It would be a way to reconnect with people and actually talk to them and spend time with friends and family. I try to unplug myself when I get home sometimes; no tv or cell phone. I think it would be difficult at first but would get easier and before you know it you'd probably pass the week and not realize it. I got rid of a few social networking profiles I had and it is such a relief not to listen to people complain about their lives, it's wonderful!

I don't think I could go very long without any electronics. At the most a few days to one week or so.

   Yes, I think I could! I would move to small log cabin in the country: No TV, no computers, no electricity. Plenty of bottled water, canned food, a good wood stove and many fuel or battery operated lamps. Water store in buckets for cleaning. Some of our ancestors survive that way many years ago.

Nowadays it is very hard, if not impossible. If you count a car electronic, since there is plenty of electronics in a car these days. I guess we don't realize just using a Phone/stove/TV/Microwave, it seems everything you do you use some type of electronics. I don't think I could go a week without electronics personally.
