To be fair, we don't know what that is, it doesn't even have a disk drive.

Is a person supposed to buy a seperate disk drive to burn a basic data DVD?

It gets even worse than that, they are trying remove #physicalDisk media like (#)DVD and #BluRay from #computing landscape.

Flash media is volatile and allegedly *terrible* at longterm storage when battery goes, one or two years after use.

We say #RealComputersHaveDiskDrives.

Thankfully there are people still making real computers but you need to look for them.

@mesyeti
We like that you are talking about using a physical disk media that they are trying to take away from us.

Cheers.

In all seriousness, every state and territory should strive to archive. Its patently absurd to leave it to one entity.

@polychrome We also very much appreciate what you wrote about flash vs magnetic and this only bolsters our resolve that #realComputersHaveDiskDrives (ie. #bluray drives to the lay person). The current crop of so-called computers being produced are designed to be communication devices in our opinion.

@atomicpoet @anji

Real computers have disk drives.

You don't own a computer. You own a #communicationDevice.
