From the article: "Goodenough invented the heart of the battery that is all but certainly powering the device on which you are reading this."

^ rumors of the demise of the desktop are greatly exaggerated.

Yeah, I get it, a lot of people read internet articles on a tablet or phone, but using the phrase "all but certainly" is way beyond the scope of reality. A brief google search suggests mobile usage is probably between the 50% and 60% of internet traffic.

Yeah I think mobile will continue to grow, but I don't think the desktop will disappear in the near future, if it ever does completely. Of course, the blurring of the lines between the two could cause making the distinction to become more challenging.
