Well, I use X on the same configuration and it's fine. Of course, it is a bit sluggish at times, but -- for me -- it's well worth it to get Project Builder, unix, the Dock and Cocoa, etc. However, since your parents are just using it for those oth…

So, JD, are you saying that a pad of paper and pen is all you take with you to work? :laughs: A tablet computer isn't superior to paper in all ways, as you spelled out, but it is in some (what about when I want to go back and insert something in …

Some watches are powered simply by the force incurred through motion. Some calculators are powered by solar energy. How much power do headphones put out? Would a combination power source of these 2 things and a small battery belay the need for a …

Or, they could have only the ethernet port, and sell a separate modem adapter for the port. I think it is always a good idea to sell the bare minimum as standard at lower cost, then charge people extra for buying extra. "Sell'em what they want, ch…

Why is that Fran? It seems to me that these markets are very different, as we would predict by the function of their products: A PDA is just a calendar and contact list; an organizer. A tablet (at least, this one) is a computer capable of running…

Why do you think the prices are wrong? They just don't "sound" right to you? I would accept an itemized list. I've personally used a 300MHz/128MB machine in X, and it's tolerable. Better bus and processor couldn't hurt here. Besides, Apple's …

The point is because my software doesn't do curves at the tip , Trust me, I'd much rather it be rounded, and maybe even concave a little on the top. Anyway, the length is also exaggerated a little bit due to software limitations. Mostly this w…

See! Anyone who needs a collection of text-based documents (word, pdf, spreadsheet, etc) to be readily accessible on hand would do better with this than a laptop. Students, lawyers, doctors, factory foremen, your mom, I mean, the list goes on and …

We'd all love to see a Mac that had a sugar-cube sized holographic hard drive, home-grown neurons as the motherboard bus, a quantum processor, and used luminescent bacteria as the display. Or was implanted in your brain, always connected to the con…

Jason: The computer you speak of will appear in 2012. The one I'm talking about won't be obsolete for another 4 years. Yes, I'll consider PayPal wagers. Airport, Bluetooth, and LCD's obsolete before they get to market...sheesh Semant…

Gambit, I think very few people who have bought a laptop would buy this, you are right. But then again, I think many, many people would rather have this and an iMac instead of the iBook, myself first among them. Laptops are way overrated. About…

In '97, if I had heard that, I'd be like "that's it?" Jason, please don't try to turn this thread into a futurism "let's go on a journey of our imaginations" thread. I am very serious about this tablet's realism. No transporters or holographic …

Wow, those all sound like really great technologies, which I'll be reading up on for some time. However, call me crazy, but I just don't soo Jobs getting up at the next MacWorld to show us all the next Nanotech-enabled Mac. While it would be fo…
