Subject: Re: Will future PC appeal less to chess players because of attractive Palm?

Eran,

The PC will continue to shrink and will be as small as the Palm devices.  The
Palm Pilot is just a toy.  Future PC devices will be fully functional and far
surpass AMD 1.5 Ghz/1024 Mbyte RAM/600Gbyte mass storage.  You will be able to
take your PC to onsite docking/monitor stations for complete portability.

The future is dim for the classical PC and it will be looked on with great
amusement.
