Right, what I’m trying to say is that the obsolescence schedule of tablets and the rate of development does not match hardware like cars refrigerators well. Large physical items like that with other primary purposes should last a decade or two, at least.
I would think the best solution for this is to have swappable, upgradable tablets. Maybe basic operations built in, and a dock for a tablet that you could change whenever.
For any of this to function well, the manufacturers either have to work closely with competent consumer software companies, or become one themselves. It reminds me of the situation where cell phone carriers are expected to update the ROM on your old android phone, and often don’t do so regularly, because they’re not competent software or hardware companies.
