Slightly off-topic, but does anyone think that in ten, twenty years, their "most outdated device" would be their personal computer? It's like Moore's law has been too kind -- just 3 years ago I don't think I would've ever had this thought. But now, IMO, the only real reason you'd need to update your PC would be for newer games. Otherwise, there really is no reason why you'd ever need more computational power than you currently have (say, mid-high range ivy bridge, decent graphics, etc). Anything more intensive that cannot be reasonably handled by your own computer, you have the cloud -- crunch large numbers, computer renders, etc.
Or am I just afraid of change? Am I missing something? Do I really need to update my hardware for a better screen? Perhaps the day Wi-Fi becomes obsolete, maybe then I'd have to buy a new laptop...
