What if suddenly the history repeat itself today, and two young fellas create the ultimate machine inside their garage, with all the technology we have today, I think it will be the computers of computers, better than PCs, better than Macs, a brand new way of communications device, changing the way we see computers today.
How many of us will buy it? do you? will you believe in a new machine, a new beginning? a brand new OS? what will all of us do?

I will take the chance... and you?

Too much money spent on research and marketing these days for a garage setup to work. Someone might be in a garage and come up with a killer idea but you're not going to see radical change these days.

I think that a radical idea will make a radical change, somebody will come with that idea and will change everything we know today, never understimate the power of our minds, and if someone like Wosniak build something great like the Apple, I think somebody will open our eyes to the real future, teaching us that the PC and the Macs are just the begining of a new era of computation.

I'm asking 'cause someone I know told me he's working on something out of this world, and as soon he registered it, I will see whats he's talking about, well maybe is something that somebody already did in Japan already, but something tells me it will be like nothing we saw before, I just want to know if he got the chance to grow if he show it to the world...

I wish I have the brain that other people have... and change history the way Steve did back in the days...

The next killer app could come out of a garage. The web wasn't invented by a major corporation, for example. There's a lot of room for innovation online. I have to believe that there could be a replacement for the web or email, although I can't envision what either would look like.
