I see your point. Do you not think it is fair to say that there are mid range PCs at the 3 to 400 mark? I bought my pc for 500 around 6 or 7 uears ago and its only just showing its age. However most phones dont last 6 or 7 years without being crippled by more intensive software and OS updates or breaking physically or having their battery become useless.

The pc is a better investment in terms of longevity at the same price point and is upgradable part by part. Unlike 99% of mobile phones.

I think its a relatively fair comparison and to be fair to me i was only musing. I hadnt given it more thought than just improving the comparison off the top of my head.
