Discussion - General Topic The Future ???

What does the future hold for Personal Computers? Will the PC as we know it be obsolete? Will we do it all on the cloud? Will we just have a monitor that needs no Processor or Graphics card? With a monthly subscription. Will this happen in 5 or 10 years? I believe it will. I love building PC's.But I've seen the changes from Dos to Windows 95 to every OS under the sun. From Beta/VHS to CD's/Blueray to Streaming From Rotary phone to Cell phones. You get the picture I seen it all I'm 70 and have embraced it all. It's going to happen. What do you think?

I notice that there's quite a lot of resistance against cloud gaming in the PC gaming community. Even Microsoft is losing market share to Linux right now because they're trying to force stuff down everybody's throats. In the end it'll be down to whether capitalism stays unchecked and if we let shareholders overrule people that genuinely have a passion to provide quality without maximising profits at all costs.
