I’m moreso curious if laptop functions have been offloaded to phones. If you have a full gaming desktop, do you see the use case for an additional laptop? or if most people here don’t see the need for the increased processing power of a desktop, do you just use your laptop and a phone?

For myself, I mainly use my desktop, but I have a bunch of quite old laptops for tinkering.

    Personal desktop, work laptop, personal phone and work phone.

    I am on the fence about getting a laptop as well, it is just sutch a fantastic tool.

    On my future laptop, if I get one, I will run Linux as it extends the functionallity of a laptop massively.

    I would mostly use it for managing photos, media consumption, SDR listening, network analysis and light gaming.

    At the moment I an quite happy with my personal desktop computer running Windows 10, but with the insane crap M$ is pulling with Windows 11, I even disabled the TPM in my computer to avoid W11 from installing automatically.

    I do however work in IT with Windows 11, and I enjoy my job, so that won’t change.
