stuckincincy Posted March 16, 2005 Share Posted March 16, 2005 Yesterday, I added up all the possible buttons I could push in my household. No sliders, no dials, no click switches. Between 3 tv's and a dvd, cable box, remotes, 2 calculators, 1 microwave, a vcr, 1 computer (didn't include the keyboard but did include the mouse), 2 printers, a combo vcr/dvd, 3 phones, 1 2.3 watt boom box, 2 cell phones, 2 cassette recorders, I came up with 699. I tried to get to 700, even counting my doorbells and the toast button on my toaster over, but no dice. Do I need counsuling? What's your button count?

I didn't include shirt buttons, only those that would result in some action when pressed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fezmid Posted March 16, 2005 Share Posted March 16, 2005 Yes I did. I didn't include shirt buttons, only those that would result in some action when pressed. 276700[/snapback] Well I bet not all of the buttons on your remote actually do anything. So you have to take those off. CW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CW 276701[/snapback] You are probably right. I thought that my count of 699 could be a competitive number, but I am prepared to be slammed to the turf and relagated to a mere footnote by other folks' button counts.

eSJayDee Posted March 16, 2005 Share Posted March 16, 2005 Okay, I didn't actually count the # of buttons, but w/ a cursory walk around the house & some estimates, (& I didn't count anything integrated into the house, just seperate appliances), but I'd estimate I've probably got about 500.
