[Porsche-O-Phile]

This concept used to be called the "dumb box" by Bill Gates in the 1990s and it was poorly received then.

Stuff that's important, I keep on a standalone PC with no network or internet connection. Yes, it's a PITA to transfer stuff onto it, but at least it's secure.

There will always be a market for local-based applications and OS-es, even if the web based ones are more convenient (and easier for the companies offering them to control/charge for, which is really the point here...)
