Yeah, this, for sure. If I had time and energy for it, I'd kinda like to do what some people have posted stories of doing entirely by accident when going into an electronics store to buy a replacement part for something or a pack of batteries, and just hang around and disrupt said slick salesmen and try to help those types of folks realise they don't need a top of the line machine for email and office programs and very basic games, but that was... eh, a neat story 10 years ago, a good way to get thrown out of said shop nowadays.
