Inneroffice Envelop -- Nice Show, Not the First

Heck -- the AirBook is cool. But when Jobs pulled one from an inneroffice envelop, you'd have thought it was amazing and the first time it had ever happened. Back in 1988, NEC introduced the UltraLite notebook. At the launch press conference, the product manager did exactly the same thing. That was 20 years ago. Way to go Apple and Lenovo. You finally caught up.
