    Welcome to the future.

    My dad has a collection of Trash 80 CoCos in a closet, thinking they will be worth something someday.

    (and yeah, I used to think they were pretty cool instruments too, until I discovered Atari computers)

    They still can’t, really.

    Sony p-series is about the only fully functioning laptop that can fit in your pocket that I know of.

    Smartphones don’t count, unless they made some huge advancements I don’t know about.

    Bar code scanner and other useless junk doesn’t count.

    Windows CE was a pretty complete fully functional operating system compared to the narrowed iOS/Win7 carp. I can fit a device running that into my pocket.

    the iOS is pretty decent, and android is just straight up awesome. pretty much anything you could do with your laptop 5 years ago you can do on the top of the line android handsets now. shit, you can play crysis on them all now.

    And actually TRS-80s were fully functional computers, just because this model didn’t connect up to a monitor and display a GUI doesn’t mean it’s not a proper computer.

    This man made physics understandable for me. He also wrote some pretty cool fiction too.
