The Calm Before the Storm

Well, my lovelies, tomor­row all will be revealed. I’m about to ensconce myself within the med­i­ta­tion cham­ber of the Fortress of Disquietude until the magic hour is upon us. See you on the other side.

    I’m actu­ally get­ting some­what excited to see what they came up with. Up until now, I’ve found the “Apple must build a tablet or they’re DOOOOMED!” crowd only mod­er­ately less annoy­ing than the “Apple must build a head­less mini­tower like every­body else is los­ing their shirts on or they’re DOOOOMED!” crowd. (And they’re both much less annoy­ing than the “Real pro­fes­sion­als can only see a screen through onion­skin” crowd and the “Apple must license OS X or they’re DOOOOMED!” crowd.)

    Dammit, though, I’ve wanted a “per­sonal com­puter” like every­body had in The Mote in God’s Eye for 35 years now, and maybe this is it.

    Honestly I’m pretty excited to see what Apple does too. I have some ideas about what Apple’s take on the tablet is but I haven’t both­ered to enu­mer­ate them. Fortunately that means Gruber can’t claim chow­der me, and I can claim to have seen it all along.
