Who even uses laptops anymore?
Edit: got the Laptop Gestapo in my notifs for this one
People that own laptops would be my guess.
Confirmed, I own a laptop and also use it
I have mine HDMIed to the TV. It's great
Is that scaling your brains resolution down? Because I prefer to think I'm at least 8k.
You might be on to something
You don't you it up to your TV?
Yes i do, but why would it help in this case?
Elaborate
Money can be exchanged for laptops
What's wrong with laptops?
Nothings wrong with them, they just occupy a similar place in my mind as a tablet: Once popular for casual use but ended up as an awkward middle grounds between mobile phones and desktops that are now only used for business or school work.
You clearly don't have any school-aged children.
See: "or school work."
Okay, but that's a giant market. There were 75.2 million students enrolled in the U.S. in 2022. That's 75.2 million potential notebook users even if their school systems don't offer that. So I think there's a justifiable market.
People who need a portable computer. Tablets haven't quite advanced far enough to replace them entirely.
Most people. What the hell do you use?
Custom PC as main and two i7 Intel NUCs as seedbox and HTPC.
On your table while you eat? 🤨
fuckers with limited space so potentially 99% of people
And cats.
I imagine lots of people, otherwise why do they keep making them.
You should try viewing the world from a different perspective other than your own. There are billions of us, each living equally as important lives as yours.
People who can afford more than one room and want a computer in each.
Big Laptop trying to shut down the speakers of truth!
