[Discussion] Things are starting to feel like old is new

With things like OneBoard, KiBoJet, and Vensmile K8 mini one got to wonder did we ever move away from PC designs from the 70’s and 80’s or did we just take a break to discover better ways to improve a tried and true design?

What do you guys think?

Whereas I have a micro projector that is a good bit of fun, imagine if you will adding just a small amount of weight and a cover that would hold a fairly nice display to something like that (as opposed to having to carry a white wall with you wherever you go.

I think if I used the projector keyboard it would annoy @StanSimmons as I often sit across from him!
