Fully-functional Miniature Notebook Planned

florin writes "Check out this upcoming extremely cool micro-sized notebook from Microsoft-cofounder Paul Allen's company Vulcan (who were previously mentioned on Slashdot some time ago). Despite being small enough to fit in the palm of your hand, this is a fully blown x86-compatible computer capable of running Windows XP - or, presumably, a Unix of one's choice. Featuring an 800x480 pixel display, 256 MB of memory, sound, USB2, WLAN and optional Bluetooth, GPRS/CDMA or Firewire, this is far more than just another PDA, yet still small enough to carry with you at all times." Looks really cool, but I wouldn't plan on using full typing speed on it's tiny keys.

    Here's an easier way to keep "it's" vs. "its" straight. Pronouns don't use apostrophes for indicating the possessive. The other possessive pronouns:

    her
    his
    their
    my
    your
    our
    --
    "No, no, no. Don't tug on that. You never know what it might be attached to."
