How much time do we spend working on our computer's configuration and updates ?

I have just re-logged on an old(er) Ubuntu today to perform 'With linux only possible tasks'.
I had been using that machine for more than a year. After that I had a new one so I don't use it so much now.
What strikes me : the desktop is not optimized to my work anymore.
With time we switch tools, we visit other websites... So if I wanted to use again that machine and be productive I should spend half a day upgrading applications here and there, getting new bookmarks...
Even if you do a lot in the cloud, you want to manipulate your cloud services with toolbars and other small clients.
I realize how much time I spend in keeping our laptops up to date... It's much more than we think.

  1. Title

  2. Problem

  4. Business model

  5. Underlying magic

  6. Marketing and sales

  7. Competition

  8. Team

  9. Projections

  10. Status and timeline
