So now its on-par with a equivalent hardware in a PC laptop?

The OEMs for the most part aren't even remotely frightened of the tiny percentage of us using non-Microsoft operating systems.
You're missing the point; you are assuming that the vendors won't all bend over backwards to make Microsoft happy, even if it means scourging the tiny percentage of the market that wants to use other operating systems on their hardware.
It is naive to assume that companies selling motherboards will behave any differently from the ones selling pre-built machines when it comes down to being able to advertise their products as "windows 10 ready"
So, the 100,000 or so of us who use Linux will simply stop buying new hardware and the industry will not even notice we're gone.
Its hardly the only thing by which "Internet of Things" is endangered. Its far from the biggest threat I'd even say.
Use IRC. Typing skill is not optional.
No, obnoxious is being so damned anxious to insult someone that you totally miss the context of the original statement, rendering your crass remark nonsensical, and then getting your friends to mod them down and replying anonymously because you still after all that feel you need to get the last word in all the time.
Read it again, english-as-a-second-language troll. I said "buy your pizza" not "buy you pizza" where "your" implies you're the pizza vendor. In other words, the potential for inevitable abuses by advertisers presents an unacceptable consumer risk were this technology to be perfected and then legalized for such unregulated uses.
Or you could just... you know... remotely compel everyone in a 2 mile radius to buy your pizza.
E and F are redundant
Yes, I concur. I am a fan of the Rosewill USB 2.0 Adapter - RCW-608 - for IDE / SATA Device. Cheap, versatile, effective. Connect one of these to your average Linux box and doing data rescue operations from ancient hardware becomes as simple as pulling the drive out of the original machine.
Either the joke went over my head or you two know something specific about this that nobody else seems to on the outside.
I think its more accurate to say "The left hand does not know what the right hand is doing."
It is easier to write an incorrect program than understand a correct one.
