Future generations will see how we all called one big box "the computer" and they'll think that's hopelessly quaint, like "Radio Shack" and "electric snaps." In the future, everything will want to compute, just like everything wants to connect to the Internet. The Internet is this century's electric grid -- why wouldn't everything want to plug into it? It's a computer. It's just not a "PC." It's post-PC. EDIT: I sure hope the iPad browser lets you scroll through text fields easier.

In fact, this:
is way more computer than it is phone.
