While I think her comparison of the hobbyist nature of early computing to the current state of energy technologies ignores the massive amounts of research and money poured into energy, her assertion that personal computing is "solved" is interesting, to say the least. My inclination is to think that this is a short sighted and foolish perspective, given the youth of the computing industry, the plethora of nascent technologies, and the fact that personal computing has never remained settled for an extended period of time. That being said, there are decent points in there about the emerging dominance of intuitive design, embodied in the success of products that value simplicity over versatility.
What do you think?
