A lot of people say it's VaporWare (meaning it's never going to get legs, and become a real product) because there are only CG renders of the thing, and no actual physical ClamBook has been seen.

I think it'd be an interesting solution, for mobility at least, but I'd hate to work on something like that.

Something about the behemoth case next to my right leg, blowing hot air out at my ankle makes me feel like I'm getting more work done.

I think physics and cost get left out of the equation.

So, in 5 years are you buying the phone or the desktop that=E2=80=99s five times as powerful?

I willing to bet a 6 pack of the finest in 5 years the desktop will not be dead for workstation users. You=E2=80=99= ll have client wanting 4D holographic compositing and need a 100-core desktop with a terabyte of RAM to run it.

I'm not sure the desktop will exist in five years. Or OS X. Or Android. iOS and WinMob, yes.
