And that’s when shops have them available, which is extremely rare nowadays.

They might not go away completely, but just like with headphone jacks on phones, you’ll have to scrounge for them. Same with if you want a display that’s less than 6", or a physical keyboard. (Or a floppy disk…!)

I would start drinking coffee a lot sooner. I’ve found that it has a remarkable effect on my cognitive ability (supposedly a common thing amongst ADHDers), and in 2014, I’d have benefitted massively from that.

If you’re getting a big heap of money from Microsoft, who cares what decisions you make? (Playing devil’s advocate)

This is what happens everywhere: they’ll just keep chancing it until such a time as it’s acceptable.

But isn’t one of the running jokes that Heathcliff loves garbage…?

Why did you give up on everything else?

BIOS are usually set up with PXE in the boot sequence. If it fails to boot from the hard drive, it’ll attempt PXE.
