Ralphie ★ Posted January 19 Share #6 Posted January 19 Our edge browser at work goes to a start page that has stories flashing by every few seconds. Every time I go there I get stuck for a while because I am mesmerized by that. I should change it but what the heck. They apparently want us to use it, so ok! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Given the amazingly poor quality of drivel spouted by most commentators on TV, I'd say you made an exceedingly good choice! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm watching the stupid stuff they're doing and never remember what the product was after it's over, like the one with a father driving his daughter to see the ocean in a car commercial where they tell you nothing about the car. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd love to see the market share of desktops vs laptops nowadays. I can't imagine there are many reasons to purchase desktops anymore, but maybe the incremental cost of the laptop over the desktop adds up and cancels out the value of portability in some situations.

Same with home. I never wanted a lap top for home use. Lap tops are a major PITA to work on. At work I don't care because I don't service it. More people at work are getting lap tops as the years go on. Personally I wouldn't mind either way if my next work computer is a desk or lap top. Performance wise, lap tops are good as desktops to a certain degree. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still "easy" to some extent but getting more challenging every year. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
