Did this in university, where I carried a lightweight disposable laptop and had a desktop workstation (and later a server) at home. I used OpenVPN to remote in and got to smirk at the students who either had slow builds, a heavy gaming laptop, or had the money for a top-line MBP or similar.
Due to the slow upload speed of my DSL connection, this forced me to become comfortable with TUI apps and a multiplixed terminal environment, with the occassional use of Xpra when absolutely necessary.
- DwnVoteHoneyPot 5y agoIf you like MacOS, that is the most affordable performace too. I minimize the Apple premium cost by buying an Macbook Air, then have custom build PC at home. Add all the CPU, GPU and storage space at home. Also allows gaming when I want.
