The PC is dead.

For anything other than real work, that's about right. I do just about everything I need to on my phone. I can connect to my network share at home to move music back and forth, print, etc. Other than something where I need to do a good amount of typing or I need a larger screen, my phone serves me well.
Oh, and the iPad is not the replacement.
I'm scouting a Xoom.

I lost interest once I read the Xoom doesn't really handle Flash well. Bought a HP DM1z instead stuffed with SSD goodness - my Macbook Air Killah!

Speaking of lost equipment, did anybody ever find out what happened to the Cherry Double Shot machinery?

They are still using the same molds for their POM keys today.

Thanks. I imagined them sitting in a warehouse waiting to be scrapped.

I think the double shot molds would be quite different from the Lasered POM molds.
