DevsBro 08/03/19 6:24:24 PM #28:	I don't get why anyone would want this tbh. Nor Netflix or Facebook, or anything really. Unless, I guess, you just had only one computer of any kind and that was a Switch. But even then, that seems like the kind of thing where you would take that into consideration when deciding what kind of computer that one computer will be. SquirrelyDan posted...
