+:EXPORT_HUGO_CUSTOM_FRONT_MATTER: abstract I have upgraded my setup to fully wired
+:END:
+I just noticed that my entire primary computer status is wired now:
+- network is running through a copper cable,
+- audio is going through a cable to headphones,
+- my keyboard and trackball are integrated and wired.
+
+I have to say, that upgrading from (legacy) wireless options was easy and good in the long run.
+No longer have I think about batteries or spotty connections.
+The setup works without any problems now.
+Not only is the connection perfect, but also higher quality perfumeries were never downgraded to wireless connection, so when looking for premium headphones there simply is no BT based option[fn:hp]
+
+Yes, cables *may* break - especially those for headphones, but since they are easily replaceable it's no problem.
+Luckily, no one would buy headphones without detachable cable, right?
+
+I can wholeheartedly recommend this to anyone.
+The biggest surprise is that cables often come with /lower/ price compared to Bluetooth.
+After a few months, I see no reason to downgrade it.
+
+And pro hint: with an /USB switch/ I can move between personal and work computer /with a single keypress/.
+
+[fn:hp] Well, there are but let's be real.
+They will open their wings only with connected cable.
+Even if there is a BT connection, it's better just use wire.
