On the other hand, my desktop that&#x27;s been dirty-upgraded from Win 7 to Win 8 to Win 10, and is hand-assembled from components I didn&#x27;t necessarily check too closely for compatibility has uptimes regularly measured in weeks, despite running multiple instances of Visual Studio, a full SQL Server instance, piles of long-lived Chrome tabs, and whatever crazy stuff Steam and my Steam Link are doing.<p>I&#x27;m not sure I&#x27;ll ever buy another OEM PC.  So much crapware comes pre-installed, and it&#x27;s so difficult to get rid of it, that I usually wipe the disks and install Windows from an MSDN iso.  Of course, there&#x27;s still the drivers...  And more importantly, the tens and hundreds of MB of shitware that comes bundled with a tiny device driver.  No, I do not want the ASUS Smart Keyboard Whoop-dee-doo application launching at startup.  I just want my keyboard to work like every other keyboard has worked for the last 30 years.
