Of course wired is still useful,

nobody said wired isn't useful.

for a *laptop*, wired is rarely used, which is why a lot of laptop
makers no longer include it.

I live in a large apartment building
and if I use Wireless I can count about 45 computers transmitting and
possibly sniffing for whatever nefarious reasons,

the only way to know how many computers are actively using wifi in your
apartment would be by sniffing (and i doubt you even know how), and
even then, it's encrypted so you won't get very far.

So No Thank You I'll
stick to mu rj45 wire.

must be a really, really long wire...


6 foot wire.

that's quite short and will render a laptop immobile. it's barely long
enough to go behind a desk.

the point which you *still* miss is that nearly all laptop users do not
use wired ethernet, which is why most laptop makers no longer include
it anymore, nor do tablets and phones.

desktop systems are generally wired (although not always), but this was
never about desktop systems.

what *you* personally choose to do is not representative of the rest of
the world and it isn't going to change what others do either.

the reality is that wireless is as fast or faster than wired (assuming
gigabit), comparable in reliability and unlike wired, encrypted.

for 10gb-e networks, wired is faster, but that is not common, yet.
prices are starting to come down, so that is definitely changing.

I know how, and many other things which you don't.

based on what you've posted so far, no you do not.

By the way did I tell you lately your still a useless moron?

ad hominem attack, which means you have nothing to back up your useless
and entirely bogus claims.
