It's no use screaming the obvious here. You need to go on prime time TV and
shout the NEWS to all the IDIOTS that buy the ready to wear computers which
maybe Ok for the office but useless for the hard work it gets at home.
Remember the people at work use 2 or 3 programs a day and the only need for an
Hdd is to hold the OS as everything else is on a network server somewhere. They
need only be dumb terminals as has been said before.
