The disadvantage of PCs is that spending all that money on a pc that will be outdated in a few years, and some software and games that come out after a few years will not work on the pc that you purchased with a huge money, and the other things is that you can't run the pc if there is no power.

A PC from 2015 will be very slow and you flash frequently and many new applications no longer work so if you purchase a PC in 2023 be sure that 2034 will be like a PC from 2015 in 2023. So you need every while purchase a new one.

You are right, Kirubel. The components of the PC will get outdated later on. And you are right about power. Using a PC in an area wherein brownouts are common is not a good idea.

Hackers are hacking the pc/desktop of some internet users, misusing the computer to commit illegal activities and falsely blaming the person who owns the computer for the crimes the hackers commit. Innocent people are falsely called criminals.

Yes, you are right. It is not portable and in case of a power interruption, you can't use your PC, especially if you do not have a back-up power.
