RE: Finally, the beginning of the end for computers as transports...

I am not a big fan of what is going on either but I think you might not really be in touch with what current computer uses do or need. I can just speak from personal family and friends experience, I cannot tell you the last time somebody actually plugged something into a port, or God forbid use an optical drive. Most people nowadays use their system and often never do these things. Most of the lighter and thinner laptops do not even have optical drives, manufacturers do not ship discs, the and restore partitions are on the hard drive.

This is not the way I use my computers, and I guess you don't either, but this is what the current state of affairs is. That is why they are going in that direction, they are not as stupid as you think. They are catering to the majority we are sadly the minority. At least we are still allowed to vote and walk over bridges.
