Eventually the charger will fail and you will be out of luck.
I use a desktop at home and work because they last forever and are faster. I have two old ragtag laptops that I use to remote into the desktop. One laptop was my sister’s which had been virused to the hilt. I wiped it and put Linux on it. I surf the web and read email only with it. Linux makes it virus-proof for the most part. If I need anything else, I remote to the desktop.

AppyPappy I understand what you said, but I do not grok the how. And I am ok with that.

Actually am thinking of putting a desktop at the office in a bit.

Hi Appy.

I was going to do the same thing instead of putting money into a top end laptop.

I found a program called teamviewer and it looks like it will do the trick?

Do you have a better suggestion? What kind of lag time can I expect? Where are the bottlenecks?

Thanks.

“I use a desktop at home and work because they last forever and are faster.”

The machine itself might last forever, but all the desktops I have bought recently have had hard drive failures after about 3-4 years. The new high capacity hard drives just multiply the problems with bad sectors that never got properly addressed.
