Question What electronics are popular in Japanese homes for computing?


What do Japanese commonly have in their homes for computing?

Laptops?
PC's?
Windows?
Linux?
MacOS?

Do they prefer other devices for computing?

PS4?
XboxOne?
Cloud Service and thin client?
Public service?

Only computers. Or any device for computing. Will change thread title to make it understandable.

Could it be LG or Samsung, (both are Korean), isn't it?

I subscribed but didn't yet offer any answer because my answer I don't have any clue. I'm guessing that only people who have direct experience with Japan or members of LQ who are located in Japan could/would answer this correctly.

Is this a mere curiosity or something else? Admittedly I'm curious just because the question was asked.
