Arguably the problem that is implicitly solved is 'how do we reach and target college students and graduates from the high-value Ivy League demographic?'

Also entering an odd number of double quotes in the from line creates an error too.

I was a bit surprised to see FTL not recommended, for example. I would describe it as a very good, very accessible game.

Am I right in thinking that this is ipython / jupyter but for javascript?

Price is huge. 7,000 for something that doesn't even run the same software? And weighs 5+ kg?

They did to some extent have that $5 option in in the form Of a few floppies in a brief case as the article points out.

You're right. For me, it does point to the fact that most predictions are wrong at some point, right at some point, and irrelevant before and after. The things that was a laptop then (5kg beasts like this http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sharp_PC-5000) were nothing like today's machines. The T1100 seems to have been the first close thing.

It's impressive to think that it took 20 years from that article for notebooks to outsell pc. http://www.theguardian.com/technology/2009/oct/28/laptops-sa... also fun to see how net books are a focus of attention for that article. I wonder what level of accordance will be needed for a wearable to seriously compete with the current mode of computing.
