You are a very small minority.

  You are in a very small minority... of people who get it. I have nothing against consumer electronics devices, but they're about consuming. The promise of computers is in creation. Steve Jobs took Alan Kay's work, but not his ideas. The promise of the Dynabook isn't about hardware, but a change in how we create software. That change is coming, and that's the change to get excited about.

    You're not presenting any amount of believable evidence here to prove your point. Your quip of "You don't get it!" doesn't pass the muster. Yes, computers promise creation. But this creation isn't always developing software. A device can simply create entertainment. I hate to break it to you, buddy, but you've become saturated in your community. It's very hard from that point to see how very small your pool is.

      A device can simply create entertainment. No, a device shows entertainment. And people consume it. Creation means that the end user has something new when they're done. Not that they've just passed the time. And you're ad hominem attack on being saturated in your community was most likely a projection, buddy.
