90+ minutes

Thankfully, my job is only 20 minutes away and doesn't require me to use a computer outside of work. That allows me to use my computer for entertainment only. Even then, some devices get ruled out.

The only thing stopping me from getting a Chromebook is its inability to handle OverDrive audiobooks. That requires a Windows machine. Since I don't want two computers, my choices are limited.
