Linux cannot into touchscreens, which is amusing considering Android handles it easily.
Nonsense, check out how KDE 5 handles it

Because Red Hat idiotically canned its desktop distribution many years ago, deciding to go with just the lucractive server business. Overlooking the fact that Linux admins tend to use Linux desktops, and when they get in a position to influence server specs, they will go with the OS they know, that is, Ubuntu. Ah well, it's better that way, Red Hat flavors of Linux have always been a bit crappy. I mean, not unusuably crappy, just a bit crappy. No apt-get for starters, Yum is ok as far as it goes, but apt is just way nicer to use, and fix if things break.
Thunderbolt is dead in the water. Nobody knows what problem it solves.
Besides having one "killer" feature (for now) VirtuatBox has one "suidical" feature: being involved with Oracle in any way.
By definition you are an idiot. Scurry back to your desk, Microsoft deserves more like you.
It would be stupid to keep the spares running, that comes right off their life. Maybe just spin them up once a month. What I don't see mentioned is the falling cost of drives... failed drives are normally replaced by newer, higher capacity drives, or they should be. IOW, they should plug in spares over time with planned maintainance instead of dumbly overprovisioning those things permanently.
It's actually been pathetically far behind every other first world country for about ten years. Germany got the memo around 2000 and had things pretty much straightened out by 2002, pulling from way behind US (can you spell ISDN) to way ahead (competitive dial up market with affordable monthlys).
The US has had the most pathetic deal for internet access of any major industrial for ages. Telco monopoly, compliant regulators and general apathetic cluelessness about what is best for the common good.
Good, now show us one for sale like that. Oh you can't?

Asshole.
I said "able to run Windows" asshole.
The commonly accepted definition of "a PC" is "able to run Windows." Hence the MAC vs PC commercials. Are you really that stupid. Yes you are. I bet you are wearing your woolen M$ underwear right now.
You are intenionally being dense. Or you are really dense. I guess both: you are acting especially dense because you are actually pretty dense at the best of times and your only superpower is acting dense so you wallow in it.
Let Wikipedia explain it to you, apparently the one person who does not know:
Or let Microsoft play word games like you with a federal judge, and see how that works out.
No. Duh.
If a Chromebook is a PC then show me one running Windows.
Once again, I said PCs, not Chromeboxes. Well, I understand by the prevarication that is going on thick and fast that you do indeed know that Microsoft is still a flagrant lawbreaker. Firmed up my opiinion on that.
Old programmers never die, they just hit account block limit.
