Yeah, that's what I thought, but I can't use that one (it's for a class). So other than that one, what innovations in hardware have there been? I'm stuck, but tempted to use USB 3.0 which is brand spanking new.

Ah crap, nevermind.

Ok, I've settled on Portable Wifi.

Is the Adam processor within five years? That's allowed more powerful netbooks.

SSD Drives. Those have been showing promise.

If you consider LCD monitors computer Hardware I would go with that. 5 years ago most everyone had big and heavy CRTs unless you had lots of money. Look how LCD's have changed in the last 5 years. Bigger and cheaper.

I'd go with Wifi too. It's something I really wouldn't want to be without. I could live without flash memory, LCD monitors but Wifi has transformed my computing 'life'.. I mean how else would I be able to sit on the crapper and surf the net with my Itouch?? heheh.. ( WHAT??? and you guy's with Iphone/Touch/Blackberry's/Netbooks dont!!?? heh you lie!!! )
