HTC Shift + ThinkPad X300 + MacBook Air = Perfect Notebook?
Tom's Hardware has an interesting look at the HTC Shift, the newest contender in the ultralight portable arena, with a strong compare and contrast to the other two heavyweights, the ThinkPad X300 and the Macbook Air. "As some of you know, I actually like the Macbook Air but found the Lenovo ThinkPad X300 to be a vastly more useful product in the class. I'm one of the few folks that have been using an early version of the HTC Shift , a smaller screened ultra light tablet with a keyboard and a touch screen which is superior to both offerings in some ways and just released on Amazon.com for $1500 (someone screwed up, this wasn't supposed to happen until next week). This got me thinking: The perfect next generation ultra-sexy notebook should be a blend of all three products."
Shouldn't that be "lightweights?"
Yr doin' it wrong.
Purple Monkey Dishwasher? "Hey I know, instead of thinking of a coherent thought for the title I'll just throw in product names randomly, no one will notice!"
I know this is Slashdot and the above statement is probably true but come on, at least pretend like you can speak in complete sentences.
No, it's: "Confusing headline this is."
This slashdot. verb no good here!

Do you mean 'promotions' as in 'getting a different job title'? Like moving from IS Engineer to IS Manager? Because I sure don't want that. I'm a short, fat guy with questionable fashion sense and minimal personal hygiene. And yet I get better reviews and make more money than most of the managers in the company. So I guess how I look was a big factor in me not getting promoted - but it wasn't a factor in making advancement.
I judt got a nre Kinesis keybiartf so please excusr ant egregiou typos.
Maybe you and the young female executive with the Air could do one of those "I'm a Mac...And I'm a PC" commercials.
What I'm listening to now on Pandora...
>>In the history of Macs, from 1984 forward, there has never been a single successful remote attack on the OS.
>>No other operating system on the planet can state that as a medal of honor.
Ah yes, the mind control broadcast towers are working as planned...
Online backup with Mozy, sounds like Ozzie, but more!

What the heck does this mean, anyway? And no, I don't want to read the article.
The higher the technology, the sharper that two-edged sword.
there has never been a single successful remote attack on the OS.
Put it this way: a really successful remote attack is one which nobody ever learns about, so it's ridiculous to claim that any given operating system has never been exploited. I guarantee that Macs have been cracked at some point in their history. I think it doesn't happen more often because Mac owners don't have anything on them that anyone would want.
The higher the technology, the sharper that two-edged sword.
Ergo, it's not on the market yet (until some kind of weird unfolding tech comes out, or people use projectors, or something like that).
... I've seen them on Stargate SG-1!
Think holojectors, dude. Three-dimensional holojectors, that's the ticket. Toss that puppy onto a table in front of you and see a beautiful 3-D desktop floating in midair. I know they can do it if they want to
The higher the technology, the sharper that two-edged sword.
... and do 900 squazillion miles on one gallon. Of water. I've patented it, just on the off chance that some sucker actually makes one. [evil cackle]
