> Outside of gamers, I don't know anyone that has a computer at home that is not their work laptop if they have one.

Interesting. I don't know anyone who doesn't have a personal computer at home. Mostly laptops. With the exceptions of nerds like myself, the signifier that someone is a gamer is that their home computer is a tower rather than a laptop.

I wonder how much regional variation there is around this sort of thing? It sounds like it might be quite a lot.





FWIW, this is my experience too. I'm 50yo, live in the Boston area.
