I believe it speaks to some of your questions.

I don’t think disposable computers are hurting the industry because we have created a situation where it doesn’t matter how poor the quality is, we have bought into this culture of computers so much that it would devastate us to not use them. We’ll get frustrated and lament the state of affairs and wax nostalgic for the good ol’ days, then we’ll walk right in and buy a brand new disposable computer because we spilled coffee on the last one.

If quality were of concern to this culture, we’d shoot our televisions at the annual block party.
