Re:How the IBM PC Won, Then Lost, the Personal Computer Market by causi on Thursday July 22, 2021 @08:30AM (#27918066)
Yeah, there are certain critical functions that to me define a "real computer". Accessing external mass storage, system-wide volume control for individual programs, being able to back up the system without a second computer, not having any sort of settings or features that depend on a second computer (like things you can only do on bootloader-locked android using ADB from a PC). I'm never going to have a household without a real computer in it.
