So why did this happened? It was supposed to be dead.

>>62234253
>increase in 0.6% after 5 years of steep decline
hmm

Turns out most people don't do much with their computers anyway.

>>62234264
Make sense, i didn't change my laptop until recently. I don't have to buy one every year like a shitty smartphone.

I can see the need for laptops dying. Most people who work blue collar jobs only need a phone. People that require computers only need a desktop now. Even students in worthwhile degree programs don't even need a laptop, just an e-reader or tablet for textbooks from libgen plus a desktop. The only people that NEED a laptop are people in worthless degree programs like liberal arts and humanities.

>PCs sold 10 years ago are completely usable for normie use still
>pc sales go down
really makes you think

>>62234132
Normies will probably quit using PCs. My normie roommate and most of his friends do not even own laptops, they just use their phones and maybe chromecasts for Netflix.

It's interesting how much windows have shot down yet OSX has stayed relatively consistent

Tablets is dead or it's going to die. The new shit is the 2-in-1 Laptop

>>62234355
what's their jobs?

>>62234132
No, Microsoft killed it with WinSpy 10

>>62234375
Laptops are dying. There is no market for it outside of media and liberals arts. They are the jack of all trades, master of none tech now.

More like M$ and their (((friend))) (Asus, Lenovo, HP etc) keep tryingto save it.

>>62234418
Regular laptops are over the rise of convertible laptops.

>>62234253
>>62234199
>>62234132
Your not so tech savvy parents and grandparents sold off their old pentium 4s for tablets while pc gaming is rising

>>62234199
Just because billions of pajeets and chongs are coming into the digital age due to the poo in loo mobile os android doesn't mean less people are using desktops

>win32 emulation on ARM

really fucking interesting.

>>62234892
??? It bascially QEMU. Intel won't let it happen.

>>62234913
Sorry anon, I don't follow VM stuff. Didn't realize it's been done before with decent success.

But, just so I understand, this isn't full x86 emulation? This is more a la WINE?

No. Like Wangblows, they won't die since you can't do office work on a tablet

>>62234199
this is the stupidest fucking graph fuck you anon for posting it. how about you post a graph with some god damn numbers instead of "market share" numbers skewed by the fucking indians and their $10 android phones

If videogames didnt exist no one would own a pc

>>62234132
i hope so. fuck IBM compat PCs

nonfree bullshit and a lot of bad design.

>>62235059
why not?

just put a keyboard and plug it into a monitor.

>>62234953
wine is not an emulator
it translates windows instructions into native ones

>>62234355
They aren't in college right?

>>62234953
Those applications will be emulated on the platform. When an application is first run, it will be translated from x86 into native ARM64 instructions, and cached both in-memory and on disk for future use. These Compiled Hybrid Portable Execution DLLs (CHPE) are where the magic happens. These files contain native ARM code and interface with the WOW (Windows on Windows) abstraction layer. It should have native or near-native performance when run on ARM devices according to them but who knows

>>62234132

the more a technology has been around the more likely its to continue in the future
