Pretty cool, but where's the C64?

Definitely. The C64 should have been on the list. It holds a Guinness Record, damnit!

Um... pocket PC's? Anyone remember those? The author didn't. They were the predicessor of the palm computers and the Newton didn't even get a mention either.

Unfortunate that things like this aren't made any more. I saw a 'real' pocket PC in a store in Canada in 1997. Low-end Pentium, 16MB of RAM, Win95, and a full keyboard (can't remember if it had a numeric pad... probably not). Wouldn't win any awards for technical specifications, but it was smaller than a DVD case.

PocketPCs now are significantly smaller, but they can't run the same programs as your desktop machine!

@ r0jaws

I'm not sure if it was that, but it was pretty similar. Thanks for pointing this out!

@ Syrtran

That Q1 looks nifty, but more expensive.
