After almost six months doing IT support, I am still shocked at how much people don\u2019t like their tablets. I never bought the hype but I was pretty sure that people enjoyed their devices.<\/p>\n
Main complaint: They\u2019re tired of pulling the keyboard out, constantly. And if they\u2019re using their tablets a lot they buy stands and keyboards and then well, it\u2019s just a laptop that isn\u2019t compatible with everything like a laptop is.<\/p>\n
Laptops are fantastic in terms of usage. They\u2019re light, they sit on their own, mate screens are still the shit (thanks Lenovo, thank you). You might even be able to upgrade a thing or two to make them last longer. If I could have the same 2012 laptop that I have with 2017 AMD hardware inside, I\u2019d buy one as soon as possible. OEMs are still thinking that people look for innovation when we\u2019re looking for peace of mind. So they build new laptops with new hardware, changing the keyboard layout \u2013who asked you?- getting rid of ports \u2013who asked you?- and adding shit we never asked for, like a touchscreen. Laptops with touchscreens make absolutely no sense.<\/p>\n
15\u201d is kind of the perfect size to work at a desk and watch a movie in bed. Plug in a controller bam, it\u2019s a Switch console now. Plug in speakers and a sound card, you now have a more than decent recording studio. It\u2019s beautiful.<\/p>\n
I want people to realize the beauty in the fact that we have reached some kind of perfection. Bigger sizes don\u2019t do it. More pixels don\u2019t change nothing (your eyes are not getting better with time) and are absolutely overkill on the GPU\/battery life front.<\/p>\n
There is no need to reach for new form factors. We could use more convenience like waterproof, washable laptop keyboard (how come it\u2019s still not a thing????), actual standard sound volume buttons and other little improvements and consistency that need to be polished.<\/p>\n
I wish I could start a hardware shop. Simple Machines. Customized by real users, for real users. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
