Acorn fans are, I expect, feeling slightly vindicated now.

Now if they'll only start putting any of this tech in useful form-factors such as laptops...Chromebook's a start, I guess, if you're not bound to run Google CollectAllYourDataOS on it.


Bad consumer! No biscuit! :razz:


And yeah, I imagine there's all sorts of things that /could/ be done with this, that'd be wicked cool, but "consumer gadgets" are a safer market than the traditional computer market.

Just as long as that useful form factor has 4 modems and accompanying rj-11 ports :D


I personally refuse any consumer electronics without at least 8 phone jacks

From a business perspective, I imagine embedded devices is the money maker currently, so that might be well on purpose.
