    Gave my last desktop away ages ago. Although I continue to get laptops as needed, I do nearly everything on my iPhone, to the extent that I no longer keep up with laptop functions.

    IIRC my desktop was running Windows 2000 when I last used it. Still got it in the 'junk' room along with a slide photo scanner which I used a lot. Soon as I got a laptop I never used the desktop again.

    I rarely use my phone for anything to be honest. It can sit unused for days. Comes in handy when there's a power cut.
