The horror of having a pre-configured operating system! I can't imagine how many complaints Microsoft gets on a daily basis from users who have useful, ready-to-use computers. They're particularly annoyed by the fact that fixing a problem is incredibly easy. They would much rather be looking for obscure files and entering bizarre strings into them. > Yes, Microsoft is for total idiots, and they can have it.

Those spaces are only a problem once the files have been transferred to Linux which, for God knows what reason, has trouble handling them. I've lost a number of music files as a result of Linux deciding that certain things are unacceptable. It's one of the things which pushed me away from Linux entirely. -- Slimer

A thumb-drive computer could accommodate those tasks... An observation that I was also thinking, when I saw a recent troll's "20% of desktop capable" claim: the technical computing requirements for running a mere desktop aren't that stringent anymore in comparison to what hardware can be put into something as small as a USB thumb drive form factor. Add to that how there's been a boatload of dirt cheap USB thumb drive based media machines ... Google Chromecast, Roku Streaming Stick, Amazon Fire TV Stick, etc ... and the reality is that the bar for 'capable' is quite low today: pretty much the cost to fill the gas tank in one's car, which does not make for a profound claim regarding what OS happens to be installed on it. -hh

You're putting too lofty a bar for what a desktop should be used for. "Serious and extensive COMPUTIING"? Really? What does that even mean? Document production (what people do at work and at home) is not all that hard from a computing standpoint and is easily done on most smartphones and tablets. Image processing is most often quite simple, and can be done even on many tablets and phones. Higher end "Photoshoppng" doesn't even really need a high end computer anymore - an i3 laptop or desktop can easily run Photoshop and its most powerful professional uses. See below[1]. App programming itself needs but an editor and compiler - you don't need all that much "power" at all. Admittedly doing so on a fast machine is more fun. Simulations need not be done on a desktop. There are dozens and dozens of mainframe and servers for rent that host virtual environments of many kinds. Much more powerful than any desktop available. And you rent the time and only that time that you run your simulation. Cheaper than building a faster machine. I think your 'model' of what computers are and are not is seriously distorted. [1] Apple's most recent iPad Pro is the breakout product for creatives who do not want to be tied to a desktop. Neither "tablet" nor "computer" it's the best of all worlds. Powerful processing tied to a large display for creatives to use. Optional stylus and keyboard according to the need of the user. PS: all caps to punctuate is a bit silly. I think you have an inferiority complex.
