> biz users are email and a few small spreadsheets. I don't get why biz users need multicore anything.

Have you opened a Chrome or Electron app recently? And many biz users need to run those apps while on Zoom with a virtual background for the camera.

Based on your logic, all most biz users really need for email and spreadsheets can be done using Lotus Notes / 1-2-3 on a single-core IBM 5150 with 5 MHZ and 256KB of memory.

I'm not sure if this is a stupid attempt at a rebuttal, or if you've accidentally made a rather good point as well.

BTW My home machine is a decade-old dual core and it runs email, web and all of Libreofffice just fine, and with 90% of its mem unused.

How about you stop making personal attacks?

That was a ridiculous interpretation of what I asked so how about not strawmanning people asking questions. And BTW I gave you the spec of my current machine which you ignored.
