The Star Trek TNG Future
Look at two inventions that appear to be our way to the future as Star Trek TNG. The isolinear chip resembles our sim cards and data cards. Take a look at the new iPad, does it not look like the pad Picard uses in Star Trek TNG?
By removing optical drives and using only cards and the cloud system of the internet, with only small portable fixed drives, we are seeing that future unfold through Apple and not through Microsoft or IBM. Still today I see Microsoft making computers relying on 8 and 16 pin connectors and not the very versatile USB.
Look at the Air Book no optical drive and no mechanized driver. Yes, this is our cool future.
Even though the iPad is not what people thought it to be a personal tablet computer it is however much like the Star Trek TNG Pad that is linked to a Main Computer, as an accessory.

...Still today I see Microsoft making computers relying on 8 and 16 pin connectors and not the very versatile USB.....
vs Apple making things with a PROPRIETARY 30-pin connector?... rather than a "standards-based" USB connector?

What has a 30 pin connector? The iPod, iPad, iPhone? They are supposed to be that way and as you see they confer to USB.
