The five dollar latte crowd is willing to pay and consume. Walk into any café and good luck finding non-Apple machines. (Occasionally there will be a Surface or two, especially if you live in Seattle).

- war1025 6y ago> Plus, in 5 years they will be reconsidering workplace setup due to back pain and/or carpal. This is where I'm at. I don't know if other people are built from sturdier stuff than me or what, but typing on a laptop to any significant extent leaves me with tendonitis for several days. And staring at a laptop screen too long leaves me with neck pain. Laptops are a nightmare in terms of ergonomics. It's been a bit of a blessing for me because I only have a laptop at home, and it basically means I can't take work home with me. But I'm pretty seriously considering upgrading to a traditional desktop sometime in the next year.
