My Gear I use my Lenovo Ideapad for most daily tasks because it's light and portable. I have a more powerful Dell Latitude that I use for gaming, recording, and video editing. I also have a hacked Chromebook running Windows 10 that I use to emulate classic video game consoles. I stream movies on my Roku smart TV, which is connected to my Nintendo Switch, PS VR, and a hacked SNES Classic with the entire library of 16-bit Nintendo games. I haven't read a physical book since 2010 thanks to my Amazon Fire tablet, which I rooted so that I can install apps outside of the Kindle store. By my bedside, I have a Google Nest Hub, but I have an Amazon Echo in my living room. That way, I can take full advantage of both virtual assistants.
