Hate to pop your so cool Apple tablet hot air bubble but …
I have pretty much tried to stay out of this whole Apple fanboy daisy-chain lovefest over the possibility of some super duper tablet being announced this month.
Except Robert Scoble just had to go and add his two cents worth about the glory that will soon be in our shaking hands (emphasis is mine).
Well I hate to be the burst everyone’s Apple loving bubbles but the tablet – or slate – or anything you want to call it – isn’t anything new. Nor is Apple the first one to walk down this road – regardless of Scoble’s fandom.
Oh and it’s not just Microsoft, as Linux has been running on tablet computers that don’t exist – well at least not before Apple says they do.
You might want to take that up with companies like Toshiba, Acer. Lenovo and HP.
But then we all know that Scoble thinks that Microsoft is old and decrepit.
Just too bad we’ve forgotten to give credit where credit is due – not everything in our tech world exists because Apple says so.
