Technology Roadmap for 2010 and beyond

I thought I’d write about my technology roadmap so you can understand why I decide to change certain bits of technology after certain times. With new products and developments being announced so often these days, it is hard for many to keep up. So here is the roadmap for my laptop, phone, and some other [...]
