Saw this in fortunes: Imagine that Cray computer decides to make a personal computer. It has a 150 MHz processor, 200 megabytes of RAM, 1500 megabytes of disk storage, a screen resolution of 4096 x 4096 pixels, relies entirely on voice recognition for input, fits in your shirt pocket and costs $300. What's the first question that the computer community asks?
"Is it PC compatible?" You know, that was written like.. how long ago? And letsee.. we have the processor, ten times as fast, we have the ram, by ... well, some people have five times as much in their machines. We have the disk storage, sometimes fifty times more. There's almost half decent voice recognition software out there. Won't fit in the pocket, and doesn't cost 300 bucks, but it's not THAT far off either. But. Where's our high resolution screens?
