> "And what Apple got right was their understanding that pen-computing for text input is just plain unworkable; [...]" Ah, the usual "inking is useless" hyperbolic drivel. Pens worked fine (enough) for me as longtime Wacom EMR user, including for handwriting, e. g. classroom notes, sketching, and the like, especially via dedicated third-party solutions. And, obviously, there's always room for improvement. Just as it's obvious that for that to happen you have to "keep the dream alive". And Steve "Who needs a stylus" Jobs is, as overrated as he was, a dead businessman, while the stylus is, as underrated a tool, still kicking. Even in the castrated and enshittified pen-computing product line of the company he helped to build. I do pen computing since it began. Indispensable tool in my fields of work. The most problematic thing? Ultramobile and modular general-purpose computing is an underserved market; penabled UMGPC (or UMPCs) are practically nonexistant. Sad.
