    You see all those things you just listed?

    Those are things you hardly ever worry about or whose existence you completely forget about when you ditch a PC.

    Your computer is an annoying child you never parented.

    Wanna boot it up? Better wait for a minute or two. Oh! Now it needs an update because something went wrong last night when it was supposed to automatically do it.

    Oops! Lost internet connection. Better go pecking around menus.

    Shit. It’s acting up still. Your game you’re trying to play is losing frames. Something to do with heat management. Something about a graphics card? Who frigging knows, better ask the internet from a phone.

    P.S. Your antivirus is out of date and you need money to renew your subscription. The process will take another few hours of your time because you have to babysit it past all the AI that’s sure to get in the way.

    Bah! Humbug!

      Can introduce you to our lord and savior Debian? All your troubles will go away when you accept Linux into your heart.

        No. That requires a PC.

        Tablets and phones allow keyboards and run 99 percent of the programs or tasks I could ever need.
