But, I like the idea of an unpersonal computer. Right now the only thing that really makes my laptop different than my friend's laptop is the stickers on the cover and some MS Office shortcuts I set. My data is mostly unimportant, and already in Dropbox/Gmail so I can access it anywhere.

A majority of people are significantly helped by this strategy, not hurt.
