well where do you think we'll be 5 or 10 years down the road? do you thin PDAs will have taken over, or the little PDA-size laptops will have made a return with force? or will those super-spiffy tablet PCs have become the norm? or will we still have our beloved desktops and labtops as dominant types?

i personally think we'll see tablet PCs become very popular, as they aren't too small, but aren't too big either. plus they are capable of being nearly as powerful as a labtop, but i also think we'll see a rise in small drives that can be brought with you, like USB or Firewire CD drives. i also think that Windows will still be the #1 OS.

I believe that what will be in 5 - 10 years from now does not even exist yet so our minds can not comprehend it. Just think about where we were 5 - 10 years ago!

Eventually everything will be biotechnology, that includes computing. For instance in the future, you can surf the new 'internet' from your own mind, the images are just projected into your retina. But school is no longer existent, and simple 'program' chips can be inserted into a special accesory which will upload 10 years of information into your mind...
