I saw an advert for a lightweight, powerful Toshiba notebook with wireless capacity this morning whilst glancing through The Weekend Australian's Magazine.
It appealed to those who want to be "well equipped and well connected without being weighed down or tied." Clearly an advert for a liquid modern with little in the way of communal ties.
Of course the advert was addressed those highly mobile executives who want to travel light but who do not want to leave anything behind. You know the guys who drive BMW 4 wheel drives to the shack to spend the weekend cruising the waters in their boat during the summer; or to Mt Buffalo to go skiing in winter.
We ordinary souls can but desire and dream.
