Hell no!
Umm why not? It is a great overall device.
Unless you are just trying to fanboy hate.
The features are simply the normal see-saw with Samsung.
The S9 is $719 MSRP and the S9+ is $839 MSRP.
The Note9 is $999 MSRP.So really it is simply a matter of which operating system you prefer.

I'd be willing to give one a try because I'm on my last thread with Samsung and/or Android, but... not for over $1k.

Been a iPhone user from day one but my response will be the same for any phone at that price.

These days, with the smaller monthly charges, I simply get the phone that I think I want. Yeah, $55, or $60 a month is a lot for a phone, but since it replaces a tablet for me as well... I'd be fine with that.
Right now, I'm leaning Android. Another year or two ... who knows.

I bought the Pixel for 650, so it was worth it to pay it upfront.

That's a weird question. Because basically they get better as you pay more. It's not like a big matrix where some have high value and some have low and price is all over the place, like you'd find between ten different vendors.
They make like four phones, each with more features for more money. So it's a linear graph with more money for better, less more for lesser.

The value of the previous edition drops pretty sharply after the new ones are released particularly on the used market. That is probably the break point in the performance/cost curve.

Remote Desktop web client now generally available
https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/Enterprise-Mobility-Security/Remote-Desktop-web-client-now-generally-available/ba-p/250588 -
Today, we are announcing the general availability of the Remote Desktop web client for Windows Server 2016 and Windows Server 2019 Preview. With a few simple PowerShell cmdlets, the client can be added to an existing Remote Desktop Services deployment, side by side with the RDWeb role. This first release of the web client contains a core set of features to get you started in providing a simple, no-install, consistent cross-platform solution to end users who don’t need some of the more advanced features from a native client. The following features are currently available:
- Access desktops and apps published through a feed
- Single sign-on
- Print to PDF file
- Audio out
- Full screen and dynamic resolution
- Copy/paste text using Ctrl+C and Ctrl+V
- Keyboard and mouse input support
- Localized in 18 languages
-
That's pretty amazing. I can't wait to get to try that out.

@scottalanmiller that will be a good feature..

This caught my attention in the setup guide...
Isn't it almost always better for a company to do per user licenses? Especially with folks having multiple devices these days.

Almost always better, yes. There are unique cases for the device licensing, but it is generally way more limiting than it is worth.
