Now that almost every adult in the 1st world has a mobile phone in their pocket that is more than capable of being a desktop PC, the solution we should be heading for is universal docking stations (preferably) wireless. So that wherever you are, there&amp;#x27;s a large screen+keyboard+mouse (or the phone screen can be a trackpad) and your phone just connects to those, be it at work, or home, or in a hotel.&lt;p&gt;Your main machine is in your pocket; a lot of non-techie people don&amp;#x27;t even have any other personal computing device (laptop&amp;#x2F;desktop etc.).&lt;p&gt;Personally tho, I like having a division between my work machine(s), and my home machine(s).</text><parent_chain><item><author>addicted</author><text>Steve Jobs talked about this when he returned to Apple.
