Oh, really? This is news for me. I thought by now I knew what is

That's what I meant with the average profile which is not only found
on newbie machines but on most home computers, even with experienced
users. The machine which is dedicated for one category only is very
rare in home environments. In most cases a dedicated machine is a file
or print server or a multimedia box in the living room (which is a
totally different case).
