The article starts with a lament over closed hardware, like Apple, which I expected. Yes, the open platform of “PC” is closing. However, we also have a rise in open hardware platforms like Raspberry Pi, which are powerful enough to run a desktop and a web browser, and which only costs tens of dollars! No, it can’t compete with Apple or Microsoft of Google, but it IS an open and free platform. Despite giving up and going all in on Apple, after 19 years of Linux on the desktop, I take comfort knowing it’s there.
