The next Generation computer

http://www.ncomputing.com/ncomputing/products/typel100.php

At the size of a pda, with connection to keyboard, mouse and monitor, it has no CPU and HDD. Connected with boardband / Ethernet and runs programs on network computers. All hardware bonded to a plastic chip, nothing to break inside so it's robust. Consumer 2% of the power of a regular PC. Costed $50 at launch. Sounds promising.

Wait a minute: Bill doesn't say yes to connect 30 users to one single Windows PC....

It is not a true computer, it is what we call a workstation, just like those connect to the mainframe computer. It does not have CPU or even harddrive but only a limited RAM. All process are done by the server, but it replaced by a XP computer now.
