Just PC. I don't have any of the other devices. Well, I do have a phone, but I only use that for calls or messages, you know, primitive stuff.

I primarily use my shitty laptop, but I use my phone when I'm gaming or otherwise can't use my laptop.

Eh...it works if you're not trying much fancy stuff. I've done it and it's not abysmal but it's just a bit annoying (also - big thumbs make hitting the correct letter slightly harder) and editing a quote or even trying markup would probably make me just quit and go on the laptop. I mean, I've done it, that's why I know it'd just be easier to go switch to another platform than continue doing it on a phone. Also, long responses are hard to write and proof read. That's my experience with it, though.
Yeah, my hands are huge. Part of why I can't imagine it going over well. That and it's so easy to shift without tactile feedback. I'm literally unable to type normally, but I can work a keyboard without looking at the keys (very often....I don't always remember all the character locations, but for standard typing....).

My phone. It's only really a pain in the ass on threads where everyone has 3 videos imbedded on each post.
I also sometimes use my regular computer if I'm in my office.

Desktop, mostly. Though I'll occasionally use my phone to watch a video or read an article if I'm too lazy to get out of bed

Desktop, laptop, tablet, phone, anything really. Depends on what I have with me at the moment.

On my laptop and desktop 99% of the time.
That last per cent is Saturday or Sunday afternoon after Liverpool have played their match to read the comments in the barclays premier league user group which has been spammed to death by 2 of my good friends. This happens via my phone while I'm walking home from my friends place.

I'm using my laptop pretty much any time I use the site. I occasionally use my iPod Touch to log in and check my messages, but browsing and commenting on the site is hellish on a titchy iPod screen. I have found that iPads are quite comfortable for using the site though, since I sometimes use my flatmate's while he's nicked my PS3 to play Skyrim, but yeah, it's mostly my laptop.

Almost always desktop, though I occasionally use my brother's iPad when he's visiting. But mostly desktop. Nothing quite like a nice big 1280x1024 (don't laugh, my rig is old) window with tabbed browsing.

Desktop all the way. I can type very quickly and accurately using a standard keyboard without looking, but using a touchscreen I revert to grandma and slowly type each letter while I verify the accuracy of what I just typed. I make a big deal about tactile feedback, which is why I find 95% of the smartphone games unplayable. So yeah, old-school desktop. Videos work better and it's easier to read and loads faster anyway.

I use my laptop due to the fact that my phone is a brick. That thing took a 15 foot fall, and I'm certain that it did more damage to the ground than the ground did to it.
