OT: A New Type Of Computer.

U

A man showed me his computer the other day.
It was made out of wood, about a quarter of an inch in diameter and about 7
inches long.
It had graphite going up through the middle of it and the delete button was
on the end (made out of rubber).
He said a power outage had no effect on it.
Maybe I need to trade my computer in on a newer model like his.

Only problem with that type of computer is the operator.

I use a Pacmate at times - small/compact and easy to tote; although now the
Netbooks have replaced the latter - sort of, depending on the softeware.

Nothing like the piece of wood about a quarter of an inch in diameter and 7
inches long.

Yeah, but that's the biggest problem with THIS type of computer, too! :)

Nor really! Biggest problem with THIS type of computer are those people
creating viruses,
malware and other such trash.

Unfortunately you need to supply storage media yourself, and the spell
checker is difficult for most to operate. Also there isn't a working
spreadsheet application.
