You know that the future is already here...

when you read a sentence like this one about a new computer:

The screen is drip resistant, and it has a drain in case you spill on it.
Oh well...

A distinction without a difference? The screen may be drip resistant but I bet the ports aren't.

Heh heh you said spill

But you still have to use a keyboard, and it won't speak back to you. Not yet at Star Trek league.

Some of the tablets come with plastic stoppers on the ports.

That's not I who said this, it was a quote from the article. And the strange thing was that usually people spill things on the keyboard.

Oh, it could, easily, with TTS (Text To Speech).

What's funny about spill? Getting old I guess.

That's a part of the surfers' 'lore, talking about all kinds of stuff spilled on the keyboard. Guess you know what they mean ;-)
