I can give you a simple example: I live in the capital of my country during the week, and on weekends I always go to my grandparents house. Mobility is a big issue for me, and since I don't have a car, I can't go moving around my laptop on a public bus. That's it. Instead of having to buy another PC for "my other home", I could simply plug one of these and BAM, problem solved.
I guess, but "one of these" will fit in your pocket.

Why exactly can't you take your laptop on a public bus?

Not to be rude, but he may be living in a country where it isn't exactly safe to be carrying around something like that without having it stolen.
Exactly.
Public transportation it's really dangerous.
Plug one into every screen you have. The network is the computer.

Only it didn't end well for those guys...
