Explosive Netbook Growth Expected to Slow

,----[ Quote ]
| According to a new report from research firm 
| Research and Markets, netbook shipments will 
| end the year with a bang, shipping twice as 
| many units as 2008. That's pretty impressive, 
| and with prices continuing to fall, it seems 
| netbooks are destined to keep selling like hot 
| cakes. Or are they?

Why the CrunchPad mattered

,----[ Quote ]
| Michael wanted to make a CrunchPad. It very 
| nearly happened. This marks a sea change in 
| what our media can accomplish as well as a 
| testament to the good will it has engendered 
| in its readership. In the end, a harsh 
| accident intruded. This is an important 
| distinction because from where I sit this 
| clearly wasnât a case of harsh reality 
| striking down this project but something far 
| stranger.
