"He played all afternoon with the computer"
Why is this not an acceptable answer?

[BoneheadBass]

It is a non-standard placement of the phrase "all afternoon," which normally would be at the beginning or at the end of the sentence.

[fehrerdef]

is the computer seen more like a colleague rather than a tool? Or why do we have to use "s(e)" here?

no, because I seem not to be able to access them. Your link works, but if I simply press the "discuss" button, I land here, on a page where even my original question wasn't there, so I repeated it.
That happens quite often, btw.: even when it shows a number of discussion entries in brackets the link goes to an empty page!

[VladaFu]

Because one is for the Czech->English sentence and one is for the opposite one. These are not the same threads.

"He played all afternoon with the computer" I would suggest is right in UK English despite mr bass' explanation. I would here similar constructions quite often with the placement of "all afternoon" at the end of a sentence. I am pressing, again, the my answer should be right button.
