[AT] OT - Refurbished computers

[charlie hill]

Well David,  if you have a good internet connection on a wireless modem
you can run the phone or tablet on wifi and if you have a smart TV you can
"cast" the stuff on your phone to the TV screen.   I would really prefer
to communicate and web surf on my notebook because I touch type and you
can't do that on a phone and for the reasons you expressed but laziness and 
convenience
of being able to do things without getting off the couch or out of a 
recliner make the
smart phones and tablets come in very handy.

Yes and you are more like the "crowd" than I am. Of course I'm most
always pretty close to my desktop, I like the large monitor much better
and I hate to pay for data over my smartphone. If fact on my smartphone
most of my data use is for GPS and driving directions. That puts me well
out of the norm.  I freely admit I'm not normal :)

That said whatever works is the way to go. For me it is the traditional
desktop computer and a large monitor.
