Do you own a desktop PC?

Over 90% of people who use computers DONT need a computer to do what they do on a computer. With that being the case, laptops having been made affordable and easily accessible for almost 20yrs now, I’m not the least bit surprised that there is a significant population of people who don’t currently or have not ever owned a desktop.
That being said, I’ve had a desktop almost my whole life and I’m 37. I remember being 4yrs old and I use to go in my dads office and play some space game on his Tandy.

As soon as I can get my hands on a 3080, 3080ti, 3090, or 6900 (preferably a 3080 or 6900) for a reasonable price, I will
-Yep. My nephew had one built & was selling it so I bought it from him. I just factory reset it so I'm gonna start getting it set up for what I actually want it for now.
-I've been mostly using laptops for years & I still have a couple now.

Nah I don't. Crazy how I was so addicted to desktop computers and now I wouldn't even use one if I had one.
I always had a desktop from 95 till like 2014.
I have a chromebook but don't use it . I don't have any use for them tbh.

I think the last desktop i owned was during my college days and it was a Dell (early to miss 2000s). It's still sitting in my old bedroom and there's a ton of good music on it still.
I primarily used desktops for work up until 2013 but I now I have a saegar, an HP, and a MacBook pro.
How's that M1 treating you? I'm still on a 2018 MacBook pro

Built my PC right before the panoramic hit
m1 Mac mini 2tb 16gb ram
MacBook Pro 2017 512GB and 16GB of ram.
I’m a digital hoarder tho which explains why I have 3 computers

that feeling when the desktop you pieced together powers up for the first time is
every “nerd” worth their salt should experience it at least once
