You think the latest ultra mobile PC's are better than what was offered ten years ago? Think twice as the link to the article will force you to change your mind!

Ten-year-old Apple Newton beats latest Windows UMPC

A very good read Quad, I didn't actually realise that something like that existed that long ago :eek:

I wonder how much they fetch on ebay now?
 
I could do the same with a P90 8 MB ram runing DOS and beat any dual core, AMD or Intel, head to head.

I wouldn't be runing Windows though. ;)

Good game this computer lark.

Very intersting article. That Newton must have cost a bomb though back in 97.

So basically it follows the same trend as the rest of the computer industry. Computers still perform the same tasks they did a decade ago, but now they do them shinier and more colourful.
 
Quick and fancy are two words that descrbe todays computers if you compare them to what they did few years ago.;)
