Prior to the walkman all portable sereos were bigger, louder and
bulkier, needing bigger batteries and drawing more power.

The Walkman revolutionized portable audio be understanding that the
vast majority of people didn't need louder bigger portables, but lighter
high quality usable designs. It sold by the billions.

Laptops are functioning under the same problematic mindset. We don't
need faster, more coplex and bigger laptops. We need smaller, better
designed, more portable, less expensive laptops.

This thing is exploiting a long overdue and needed remaker of the market
and doing so with almost no marketing. They ARE selling like hotcakes.

and nobody gives a shit if they have dual core 4 gighertz CPUs with
800 gigabyte drives. They care that they can slap them closed and toss
them carelessly into their bookbag and take them for a job and make a
phone call from them from a wireless hot spot.
