		I would say it depends on your occupation.
 
 
 Tool: Take a picture of a non-computerized tool.
 
 From dictionary.com
 
 Something regarded as necessary to the carrying out of one's occupation or profession: Words are the tools of our trade.

 Cable strippers, crimpers, pullers, chip extractor, etc.  There must be many choices for a computer technician.

		Occupation is only one example, Hobby is another.
 
 Hobby:
 
 Photographer - Camera, Tripod, Lens or etc.
 Cook - Stove, Skillet, Mixer, or etc.
 
 "Tools of the trade" so to speak.
 
 Why do I feel like I'am going to be shot down here like a flying duck?
 
 LOL

		| Just be sure that the Cuisinart blender you are photographing doesn't have any semiconductors inside that make it "computerized"! |

 dictionary.com says: "tool: Something used in the performance of an operation; an instrument"
 
 so, a clothes washing machine would be a clothes cleaning tool.  i dont think this type of interpretation would score high on this site though.  i think people will vote down this sort of idea and vote up tools as mentioned above (hammers, knives, etc.) |

		| Ok... I have a stupid question.  The rules say to take a photo of a non-computerized tool.  That's tool, as a singular.  Do you think photo's with multiple tools will be counted off?  Like I said... stupid question. |

		I agree w/ the general - hard to count out plural when the cat. is itself.
