could be true, considering i'm still using my pentium4 and have no plan to upgrade any time soon

however,

it's a good thing kids are putting together their own pcs and not giving money to brands just because.

When is Google going to implement something like Microsoft's Continuum or Samsung's Dex? I would love to have a "lapdock" like the HP Elite x3 has, but with Android. Something like that could give Google a legitimate foothold in the PC space with Android.

That's... the point he was making. Microsoft is dying because PCs are dying, but Windows is still the dominant computing platform. Only let Windows users in, and you have a smaller, (which tends to be more intelligent,) community.

>>59689425
This. Who the fuck cares about prebuilt PCs? They should have never existed in the first place.
>>
The vast majority of these sales are probably laptops. Nobody buys pre-built desktop PCs for home use anymore. If you walk into a Best Buy you won't find a single one. The closest you'll get is an all-in-1, but they usually have like two models and they're placed in a low traffic area.

As far as laptops go CPU speeds have been stagnant for several years, so there's been little reason to upgrade. I can buy a 6 year old laptop with an i7-2620M and it will still be viable for most uses.

If the decline doesn't take into account convertible 2 in 1 tablets and Macbooks, then I suppose that would be somewhat surprising. Though those are technically PCs.
>>
This is good, this means normies have given in, and wont even bother with adblockers and shit.

Meaning fewer sites bothing with adblocker-blockers since most users moving to casual phone use.

So power users wont have to deal with an arms race.

>>59690516
Honestly it would be grand if low-overhead external GPUs worked. You could use your laptop for everything. Plug it into your station at home and it's just as good as a full-fledged PC except without being able to upgrade the CPU. Plug it all out and bring it to work when the time comes. No need to compromise between good specs and libreboot.

Intel are just paying for years of 5% improvements. Nobody needs an upgrade to one of their Kaby Lake housefires. Ryzen seems to be selling well judging by the stock situation and graphics cards are doing fine.

Look at the difference between an it 3rd gen and 7th gen. Wow it's fucking nothing. The base clock is a whole 0.1ghz higher and the energy consumption maybe 10% lower. We have loooong reached the plateau everyone dreaded but refuses to admit
>>
Ultimate result is going to be the bottoming out of the mid-range PC and laptop market. Only businesses, education and govt. will still need mass quantities of OEM PCs and laptops.

Of course PC sales are stagnating because advancements in PCs have also stagnated so there is no point buying a new one that is essentially the same as the old one.
>>
>>59687328
>Depressing
Why?
>>
>>59691391
It's only CPU advancements that have stagnated. GPUs continue to move forward at an impressive pace. Nvidia added an extra 50% performance from the 980 Ti to the 1080 Ti.

Except Google says that mobile devices are winning now.

that's why Google's forcing websites to make mobile-first websites if they want to get ranked high.

Desktop is dead.
>>
>>59691453
Google is invested in mobile so of course they are shilling it as hard as they can
>>
>>59691453
Maybe this will push mobile sites to not be complete dogshit. I wouldn't count on it. It will most likely just bring desktop sites to the same level as mobile.
