I’m a Luddite who agrees with you.

We see so many errors from people using phones to post; lots of times people don’t even see entire emails on their phone, because they ‘assume’ they’ve seen all they need on the first ‘page’; and I even prefer an old fashioned desk-top - don’t know how anyone really WORKS on a laptop.

“I even prefer an old fashioned desk-top”

I use my laptop to fight my way to a local Linux Desktop....

"...an old fashioned desk-top..."

I'm typing this on a desk-top - but it's only around 8 months old
so it ain't 'old fashioned'. It's a 'Mini PC'.

The system unit is something like half the size of a small
cigar box - like 5 x 5 x 1.75 inches. A Quad Core Celeron -
NOT a slouch of a slow machine at all. It does the job -
and it was surprisingly affordable too.

OK, here I found a picture of the thing -

And I am using a good old Logitech K120 full size keyboard.

My desktop died so I’ve been using a laptop. It’s an aggravating toy. Later this week I’ll be ordering a NEW Windows 7 desktop from NIXSYS. They have a section of “legacy” computers and will build Windows 7 and XP desktops.

I use a yuge smartphone because my laptop is too heavy to hold up to my nose.

That said, thanks to Deep State, I’m ready to go back to a frigging landline and just deep six my cell.
