The business and home computer market has been saturated for years now and people do not think about buying them. They are thinking about buying phones and watches.

In the context of photography, a lot of us use Lightroom, or Aperture and PCs with big monitors. Hence, the exposure to idiotic operating systems.

We have no Internet access on our production systems at work; as it should be.

It's the only way to keep critical production machines safe from "improvements" that are pushed onto connected workstations.

My computers have mostly been built and maybe every couple of years maintined by a local guy ever since Windows 98. I love Windows 10...it works a lot like Win 98 did and the several transitions have been cost free and painless.

I admit that I've avoided Dell et al, relying mostly on HP and the local guy's machines. For several years my little company ran 5+ very fast PCs with very demanding applications. I think most computer problems are caused by carelessness.
