There have been multiple statistics out recently that show a child with a computer in their bedroom is much more likely to get into dangerous situations with child predators, view pornographic sites, etc. Thus, most parenting advisors say to keep all computers with internet access in a public area of the home where the users can be observed at any time.
Your parents are making a good decision here. They are doing their job to protect and nurture you. Stop making it harder for them, and be grateful that they care enough to protect you. There are a lot of kids out there that don't have caring parents or computers and would love to be in your position.

I think that your parents should supervise you if you were to have a PC in your room. They should also block any type of bad sites to where you cannot access them on your PC.
Your parents are just using caution when it comes down to having a computer in your room. They feel that it is unsafe for you because there are so many bad sites on there.
Not sure how old you are, but you will have to show your parents how responsible you are with having a computer in your room. Anotherwards, if the PC is in your room, you need to set some time limits to be on the computer. Keep your door open at all times. Let your parents know that you will be on the PC and they can come and check up on you anytime. Be sure that you do all your homework, chores, etc... before getting on the PC. If those things are not met, then your parents have that right to remove the PC from your room.
There has to be a reason to why they are not allowing you to have a PC in your room anymore. You didn't say why.

Your parents are right. You should not have the computer in your room.
When you grow up and live in your own house you put the computer in the bathroom if you want.

NO! The computer should be visible to your parents at all times. There are dangerous things going on on the internet. They need to protect you from those dangers.

they don't want you to have it in your room b/c they don't want you to go on any bad sites like myspace. You can't make them agree with you. Parents are hard to neogociate with. Work it out.

it's your parents' home, so for now, you have to follow their rules.
at least you have a computer to use!
