Μαντέψτε από ποιους..
Σωστά! Από έναν μηχανικό του PARC της Xerox.. Όπως και το GUI, το ποντίκι, κτλ..
Αν διαβάσετε το παραπάνω άρθρο, θα ανατριχιάσετε..
Δείτε λίστα με ιδιότητες που φανταζόταν τότε ο ερευνητής:
- Combination of carry anywhere device and global information utility
- Easy to use for any person, even children
- Millions of potential users
- Flat screen or plasma panel, at least 512×512 pixel resolution and a capability to display 4000 characters per screen page
- Contrast ratio approaching that of a book
- Keyboard with no moving parts
- Single-chip CPU for $40 or less
- Rechargeable battery
- Weight less than 4 lbs
- File storage capacity of at least 500 books or several hours of audio/music
- Capability to maintain and edit files
- High bandwidth wireless data connection of 300 Kb/s or higher
- Network connection with ability to purchase, transfer and download (“instantiate”) files
- Secure payment system
- Global information connectivity, such as libraries
- Video game and entertainment functionality
- Media connectivity
- Network search feature
- Target price of $500
Σας θυμίζουν κάτι τα παραπάνω;
Μέχρι και την τιμή πέτυχε..
Βέβαια, είχε κάνει και κάποιες προβλέπεις που δεν του βγήκαν ακριβώς σωστές:
- Users can write their own programs for the device (αυτό θα το κάνει το Slate..)
- Battery can be recharged via a network connection
- Data input also based on voice input (επίσης το κάνουν τα Windows (= Slate..))
- Cassette- / floppy-based data storage
- Power only consumed during state changes of the display and not during viewing of content (although this technology already exists today in form of certain epaper devices)
- Kay viewed the Dynabook as a content creation and viewing device, while the iPad is mainly a content viewing device.
Παρόλα αυτά, μιλάμε για 38 χρόνια πριν... τότε που δεν υπήρχαν καν PCs!!
