Title: Assignment 2 - Computer of the Future
Course: KVCC CPT126 > Section: Assignments

One of the last things we mentioned in class today was to talk about different types of computers such as Ultrabook’s and desktops. We did not have much discussion on these computer types however I believe we all understand these devices. What I would like you to do is to think about what is currently available and then turn that thought to where you think things are going in the future. Some consideration should be placed towards how mobile our computing devices have become and the convergence of different devices such as cameras, phones, and computers.

1.      What do you think the computer of the future will be like?

2.      What capabilities will it have that computers currently don't have?

3.      Do you see desktop or laptop computers becoming obsolete in the near future?

4.      What changes do you foresee in the four main categories, that of input, processing, output, and storage (break each area down and explain in detail). How will these changes affect the way we interact with these computers of the future?

When answering please take time to think things through and analyze the current state of the market and use that to anticipate the future. On the face of it the question seems simple however open your imagination up and try to develop ideas and concepts. You have a week so spend some thought and then provide your answer. I would like some detail on this as to where you see the specifications of these future computers and how we will interact with them. As stated try to use your imagination but back this up with research that you conduct. Obviously I am not expecting you to have a crystal ball however provide the detail of your analysis and explain your thoughts and provide any support that you find.
