Dude, come on.  The existence of other kinds of devices in no way
changes the unique usefulness of desktop/laptop computers.  It changes
what percentage of CPUs are made for them, I know, we can agree on
that, but that doesn't make desktops a "niche".  So my point stands.

Amendment XIV
Section 1.

[...] No state shall make or enforce any law which shall
abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the
United States; nor shall any state deprive any person of
life, liberty, or property, without due process of law;
nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal
protection of the laws.

Dobbs rewrites this, it is invalid precedent.  States are
liable for denying needed abortions, e.g. TX.
