When my wife was working on her Ph.D, there were only shared computers in her lab. After an upgrade, I re-purposed her old home desktop to be able to take care of the basics and sit at her desk -- it wouldn't handle everything, but would be useful for most of the day-to-day work.
Suddenly she got sick much less often. So, what I'd really love to see would be this project using a shared computer keyboard, and I'm not talking about the same family, for example. Of course, I'm not sure in this era of laptops that shared machines happen all that often anymore.
(Edit to remove extraneous word.)

- syntheticnature 11y agoI don't know about most per se, but you make an excellent point.
