...well, you know.
Apple's market cap today is larger than IBM. Or Intel.
It's a long long way from 1984.
(Seriously, who would have thought that six years ago today, the iPod - "No wireless. Less space than a Nomad. Lame." - would be one-third of Apple revenue and that the stock would be up by almost 2000%? That's crazy talk.)
How do you pass the time during a flight? What do you bring in your carry-on?
Couple of magazines - there's always an Economist or New Yorker I haven't gotten through. The advantage there is that I can always toss them when I'm done. After that, there's the iPod, because there's always a couple of podcasts I haven't finished. So far, that's been more than enough - I wouldn't even bother bringing the laptop on board, except that there is NO WAY IN HELL that I will put it in the checked luggage. So the goal is to get to the point where I don't need the laptop and can do everything I would use it for by some other instrumentality. Enter the iPhone...I hope...
