Look, another article predicting the demise of desktop computers. Notebook computers can pack a lot of power into a compact package, but I don’t really have a strong desire to use a computer anywhere else other than my desk. If I need to quickly check e-mail or look up something while I’m out, I can do so on my phone. And if something goes kaput on my desktop (something of a misnomer as it actually stands on the floor), I can easily ask a friend to help me swap out the offending part. I’m reasonably confident that I’ll still be using a desktop in five years, just as I’m reasonably certain that in five years I’ll still be reading articles predicting the imminent death of the desktop.
