My issue is more that I want a large monitor and I want to leave it there. And there is no good place to store it.

Leaving a USB-C docking station with a nice workstation setup might make sense. Maybe just put a placard there saying compatibility not guaranteed, no tech support available, or something like that. I've never done an Air BNB, I just think that, like any other business, any amenity offered to the customer comes with the liability to maintain it. ________________________________ From: AF <[email protected]> on behalf of [email protected] <[email protected]> Sent: Sunday, October 25, 2026 5:51 PM To: 'AnimalFarm Microwave Users Group' <[email protected]> Subject: Re: [AFMUG] OT ABNB Yeah, I need a nice computer and a large screen to support my company with design work. I guess just need to find a place to put it. Like to leave at least the screen out. ________________________________ From: AF <[email protected]> on behalf of Ken Hohhof <[email protected]> Sent: Sunday, October 25, 2026 12:25 PM To: 'AnimalFarm Microwave Users Group' <[email protected]> Subject: Re: [AFMUG] OT ABNB Maybe I’m wrong, but I wouldn’t leave a nice computer there. And if they do something bad like kiddie porn or terrorist threats, it’s going to be traced by IP address and it doesn’t matter if it’s your computer or theirs. People don’t tend to use computers any more, and if they’re using one in Puerto Vallarta it’s probably just to check their work stuff while on vacation and they will probably have their own laptop and other devices. I doubt even the fanciest hotels provide computers, or if they do, it would be something like a laptop you check out from the concierge, not just sitting there like the Mr. Coffee and the minibar. But I don’t have personal experience with top tier hotels. What I’d think Airbnb renters would care about is good TV and good WiFi. If you want a nice desktop PC there for your own use, I’d lock it away while you’re gone. Not locked in an IT sense, but in a physical sense.

Will Air BNB it most of the year. Want to have a nice computer there for work and want to leave it there with a guest user account. I wonder if we need to lock it down to browser only? Don't want to go to jail for something a guest did.
