notebooks 10 years from now...

My ideal system is an Apple II with a carry handle.

I seriousness, judging from the strides we've made in the last ten years, I'm expecting a computer that resembles today's laptops but will have features that we can't even imagine nowadays but in the future we'll find indispensable. Every few years, we get something that we could call revolutionary but as far as the form of the computer itself goes, systems today are similar to those of the 90s while significantly different from systems of the 80s. I'm expecting we'll see the trend extended next decade.

I'm not expecting laptops to really change as much as I am expecting them to be replaced. With the integration of computers in so many facets of our lives, it might one day be pointless to carry a laptop.

Keyboard-virtual by beaming on the table and you can touch the beamed area like typing.

That would be quite the change from an IBM keyboard...

I still remember very well that in the movie the One, they use projectlike watch PC?? What I imagine is you can have a smaller screen and can beam the pic anywhere you like sure not my mouth. And you can also connect this kinda laptop to any screen you can imagine sure has to be electronic.

My ideal one will be 10TB hybrid HDD, WWAN,biotech CPU,extendable GPU,card reader used to expand the system memory. size-be realistic, IPOD???,Keyboard-virtual by beaming on the table and you can touch the beamed area like typing.
