My Windows Surface updated yesterday. I took it out of the storage bin and decided to update it. I do that one or twice a year as I only use it once a year anyway to do taxes. It took several update sessions to finally get to the new version, but all worked well, several hours though.
The most expensive PC I ever bought was a IBM PC AT with 16 meg of memory, and a single diskette drive. Had to pay extra for a huge for the time 20 meg hard drive, total cost was over $6K.
I currently use my iPhone or iPad for 99% of what I need to do. For the most part everyday they just work, I don’t have to worry about constant updates for security purposes. Are they perfect, heck no but my experience with them over the last 5 years is so much better that the 20 plus years with Windows. I have only touched a Mac once while helping out a friend and it was not a pleasant time.
