  2. Tablets and Laptops are popular because they are portable and, generally, cheaper than a Desktop. I have an ipad and a Laptop, they are good machines but lack the versatility and computing power of a decent PC, and who doesn't love a big screen. Tablets and Laptops are specialized tools with a limited functionality, unless you want to go really high end on a Laptop, but then the cost far exceeds that of a top of the line PC. I can't see the PC becoming obsolete.

  3. It's actually sad to see Windows 10 Signature Edition. Laptops without bloatwares should be a standard now it's one of the reason Laptops get eventually slow while days go by.

    The bloatware is what helps keep the price of the laptop/desktop more affordable.

    Always wondered why laptop manufacturers made their machines dog slow. Guess it has to be the money they make from the bloatware suppliers.

    OTOH, many of their surplus-to-requirement progs are in-house concoctions.

    Nothing like a clean install to sharpen them up but there is the worry about drivers, power management etc. Probably a misguided worry.
