I think this development is a good thing. In fact, it ought to make it easier to help my clients, but I still don’t take this to be anything close to news. Intel’s chief Paul Otellini’s keynote address to the CES 2010:
After the era of the mainframe and the PC the industry was now undergoing a third evolution into the age of personal computing, where individuals used multiple, interconnected, personalised, online computing devices.
“I believe we are on the cusp of a new era of computing – personal computing,” he told delegates.
“It is an era of many devices per person and will change our lives. We want seamless personal devices that work anywhere and are customised to us, we want to make computing personal.”
