Then again, I wouldn't expect you, (Microshock), to know or care about portability of computers as you are very much young and computers have pretty much been portable all your life, not that I'm saying it's a bad thing or anything. Things weren't always that way, though. I still have my absolutly massive Panasonic Toughbook with 32 Megs of RAM and 1 Gig of memory space. It was before the advent of the touchpad. The touchpad blew me away when it came out. In fact, any touch screen still amazes me.
Then this amazing project is released last July, codenamed "Origami". The Ultra Mobile PC. I was flabberghasted at how they can fit a Gig of RAM and 40 Gigs of hard-drive space into this tiny thing. I was further amazed when I saw a video of the Panasonic Q1 running World Of Warcraft. All of the specs seemed in alignment. That is why the UMPCs amaze me and will probably continue to amaze me. Technology moves so fast, I'd hate to be living fifty years from now when computers are just clouds of electrons floating in the air with infinite connections to one another.
You got a good head on your shoulders, kid. It'll take you far. Just don't be gay like me and think you're going to have a career writing fiction when you grow up.
