JB can suck my duck.

A year ago I was working for a company that used such PC in the cloud services. 10 months of renting that cost about the same as buying an equivalent laptop. It wasn't good.

If you mostly need a machine for word-processing and do something intense for an hour a week there might be a possibility of saving money, but for regular use no way.

Also if you have an office where people occasionally need a powerful system then just buy one powerful PC and have them share.

there's already GeForce now and there was also Google stadia but they shut that down a few years ago

Wouldn't you need a computer anyway to interface with those cloud options?

Sure, but only if he can get openreach to run me fiber to my house!

Wait, no I don't want a cloud computer. I like things the way they are
