That's interesting you call pcs an appliance.  I saw the same expression
earlier in a totally different conversation.

I see computers, phones, even applications for them as tools. And I want

around hardware configurations, or testing new software, or trying to
use software in a way it wasn't necessarily designed for on equipment it
wasn't made for.
