RE: The Macintosh at 50

Jean Poulot 27th Jan 2009

2034 marks the tenth anniversary Apple bought Microsoft.

The merger happened seven years after Apple introduced
its holographic display, making the screen, keyboard,
mouse, DVD, USB, wires and batteries redundant.

The computer is the size and thickness of a Zippo lighter
(remember those?) and the image projected is in realistic
stereoscopic 3-D, even in full daylight.

The voice recognition is superb and the punctuation is
automatic. A self-contained solar particle converter
replaced the inefficient atomic batteries of long ago.

The only competition Apple faces is from the Indian
conglomerate Tata and the Chinese giant Lenovo, who
recently bought Samsung and LG from the United Korean
Republics.

For all of you Virgin Galactic frequent flyers, there are still
a couple countries where you will not be able to connect:
The Federation of Middle Africa will be fully covered two
years from now and the Condominium of the South Pacific
will be operational by 2040.
