However, the only interesting computer I've seen
in the last few years was
the OLPC XO-1, and that was more from a social and design standpoint than
technology (though I was delighted to note it uses OpenFirmware).
What struck me as very interesting and rather new was the dual mode
screen. I've seen that ASUS is experimenting with a similar thing (Pixel Qi):

(excuse the rather shaky video, but it is worth the time)
Has any of this reached the market yet? Can one get a high contrast
screen somewhere?
Argh.. I'm slipping far from topic here, maybe I should write something
about the PDP-11/73 with VSV11 videocard I got to play with yesterday.
Cheers,
Pontus.
