Don't respond to bait threads, idiot. Just let them die. Sage.

Moving goal posts.
Name one reason for owning more than 1 personal computer.
Gaming pc with windows, work pc with Linux, media server pc and so on... I have 3 pc and I'm thinking about taking a fourth one
>Gaming pc with windows, work pc with Linux, media server pc
Virtual machines on a single PC.
A desktop that stays at the home and runs Internet-accessible services, and a laptop to take with me. I own many more but I'll admit they are just for fun, I really only *need* the two.
You know you have more than 10 computers, right?
The question nowadays is not "what is a computer?", but "what is not a computer?"
>Name one reason for owning more than 1 personal computer.
Laptop + server or anything that requires serious amounts of computing power.
>Why would any normie need more than 1 computer?

You're a fucking idiot.
>Virtual machine. No reason to have a separate computer.
Yes there is, my server runs VMs of course but it still needs a computer to run on
Remember, there is no cloud, even virtual buzzwords need something to run on

Unfathomable, but you can actually use a computer for multiple purposes at the same time!
>taking
Thats not very nice Jamal
>Unfathomable, but you can actually use a computer for multiple purposes at the same time!
And get this: There are actually reasons why you might NOT want to use a single computer for everything.
