What I learned from this article was that the dynabook was a device that was in comparison to what we may call an Ipad today, this notebook size device was designed to do any of the tasks needed that you could used a computer for. This was a well thought out idea, that possibly could have blown up to be something very big. This device was meant to solve all the problems of having to possibly carry around a computer, I personally think it was a great idea, just never really surfaced.
What I felt was really interesting was the drawing and painting part, because it was really crazy to know that it takes thousands of small dots to create a character, I found that to be interesting because to the eye you dont see these dots and who would have known. Its also crazy to know that the Dynabook was actually able to draw, very creative idea.
Funny that you mentioned the device being similar to the iPad. I too made that connection when I wrote about it on my post. It is like having a small personal computer in your hands, which would be really great if it was on the market. Who wouldn’t want a travel sized computer to have with them at all times? Sure now a days we have the iPad, and smartphones, but they still do not possess everything a computer can handle. This would really help people out to have. The future looks even more promising to know this is in the works.
