what's the reason why you guys buy those overexpensive, unfixable, limited machines even if like never going to work anywhere? Cost-effectiveness over time. I buy a good laptop maybe once a decade. If I upgrade it at all, it will only be to enlarge the storage capacity. My philosophy there is like my cars: "Buy twice as good and buy half as many". I keep my cars for over 10 years too. Like you, my main machine is a desktop. But I have to have a machine always with me for business because I never know when it might be needed. I like to see what I'm working on. Looking at tiny phone or laptop screens feels like I'm doing keyhole surgery. A laptop is good for travel, but it's really just a substitute for a good desktop.
