You don't set the table with a swiss army knife and you don't take fine cutlery into the forest.

I don't get it either.<br /><br />eBook readers. Agree. But I like the one function devices.<br /><br />Consumer-level hard drives. Agree.<br /><br />Keys. I sure as hell hope so.<br /><br />Handheld gaming consoles. Never used one.<br /><br />Now the 6 that might hang on.<br /><br />Digital music/media players. Agree.<br /><br />Landline phone. Old news.<br /><br />Internal combustion automobile engine. Damn, I hope not.<br /><br />The PC, keyboard, and mouse. I wouldn't be so sure. Maybe, eventually, but some things, like fire and the paper clip, are hard to compete with when they perform their primary function.<br />---------------------<br /><br />I think I single space now. Yes, I do.<br /><br />Good article, hadn't thought about that for a long time. <br /><br />The first job I ever had typeset was done on a hot metal Linotype machine (1973?). About the size of a small room. Loved that thing. BTW, All typesetters were men because of the physical requirements of lugging the hardware around.Francis Shivonehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17211824074217323164noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3260056830686404550.post-53240489540355168462011-01-16T09:03:29.723-06:002011-01-16T09:03:29.723-06:00"Pre-recorded physical media.

I suppose that's OK if you're listening through ear buds or tiny desktop speakers but a home system?"<br /><br />Several year ago I had a musician roommate who said the same about CD's. His medium of choice was DAT (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_Audio_Tape) because it could record at 48khz.Chrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15639001103716077990noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3260056830686404550.post-82016689061130219462011-01-15T14:04:54.634-06:002011-01-15T14:04:54.634-06:00Actually, Keyboarding is called Touch Systems Data...Actually, Keyboarding is called Touch Systems Data Entry.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07873884240823002825noreply@blogger.com
