A Glimpse At Your Future PC

Technology is constantly changing, improving. New inventions to help simplify and better our lives are being developed every day. For the most part, these tech gadgets seem to be getting faster, more complex in function, larger in storing capacity, but yet smaller in physical size making them very portable to carry. They have become more user-friendly and affordably priced for the masses. In addition, most of today's hottest tech gadgets are wireless - allowing you more freedom, but still keeping you connected. The most widely used products are cell phones, digital cameras, MP3 players and of course computers. So what does your future PC look like? Well rumor has it that it may resemble something out of a James Bond movie. See for yourself...

Look closely, but that isn't a pen with a hidden camera.

You are looking at something that would replace your PC in the near future.

The virtual pen-like PC in action,
projecting a keyboard and monitor that doesn't even really exist!

It is said that these pen-like virtual computers will use the Bluetooth technology to produce your monitor and keyboard on a flat surface. With it you could perform the normal operations you do on today's standard desktop system, the only difference being that the computer doesn't really exist. It's completely stored inside the "pen", which makes laptop computers obsolete in terms of portability. Simply slip the "pen" in your pocket and go, taking your PC with you, anywhere.

About a year ago in a speech given by Microsoft's Bill Gates, he said "you haven't seen anything yet". Could it be that he was referring to these futuristic designed computers? Only time will tell. Personally, I like to "feel" the product, not just see it. I don't think I will be too thrilled if my computer of the future consists of nothing else but some neon light shinning off my desk. I see the pros and cons to the product, but at this date and time, I'm just not feeling the virtual PC thing. Sorry.
