Every single statement they made is complete bullshit. Sure, laptops and mobile devices are nice and easy to carry around, but you can't do any of what you can do on a desktop on let's say a laptop or a cellular phone.
Cloud storage; unreliable and requires a stable WiFi connection. 3g is extremely expensive when transferring multiple gigabytes of data every hour or so.
USB Sticks and external hard drives; requires a USB cable to use on mobile devices, and USB will never be as fast as a SATA cable and the 1tb USB only had a read and write speed if about 200 Mbytes/s while my old 4tb HDD has a speed of about 6-8gbyte/s.
Laptops; how are we even supposed to fix the things or replace parts on them when they're broken without further breaking them?
Mobile phones; let's face it. They're for calling people and sending text messages. Just stop trying to make it something it isn't.

I am really tempted to scrap Windows 8 and replace it with a Windows 95 OS on my laptop now.
