I don't get the obsession with Wi-Fi on anything that isn't a phone or tablet personally, ho hum.
Thanks for that techguyone.
All major manufacturers enable a range of their desktops with WiFi and USB. They would not invest their time and money on a design concept that was of no use. Not everybody on Planet Earth wishes to have a USB cable snaking all over their lounge carpet.

I know it may hurt, but my Wifi desktop is performing impeccably in all respects. I am not restricting a single aspect of this superb set and reckon I have got top value for money and performance.
Looking nice ? It sure does, aesthetic magnificence.
