I've always daydream about a new design of computers during class or just before bed. I bet many of you also managed dream up a fantasy computer model in the near future so share it here. It doesn't have to be futuristic or ultra creative just think out what computer should be like in the next generation.

I'll go first: I imagine of a portable desktop that compress all of its hardware into a ultra-thin keyboard somewhat like laptop technology but thinner, probably around half a centimeter tall. It doesn't have an integrated screen but it will have an integrated hologram projector so it can be use for both presentation and personal. The mouse will be flat so it can be stored in the keyboard. The whole desktop surface will be powered by solar power and electromagnetic energy and the desktop will use external accessories through blue tooth or wireless so the desktop don't have any ports for USB or PSU. How's that for a concept? The only problem with this is that it is totaly unupgradable because all of the hardware will be soldered together.

i wish my fridge can be a super computer..

Use voice to command a PC.
Every morning your PC will boot up and greet you, then reminds you of your planned task today, all using a female voice of course. No more reading text.

Then maybe it can reminds me that it's my wife's/gf/family/friend's birthday, and before I can say "oh shi- i forgot", it pops up a few site selling gifts, and using AI, it finds and recommends me a small range of gives base on the person's gender, age, relationship, and any interest, maybe they can get from some online database (afterall we all puts our interest in friendster right? but its just for people to read only, which is useless).

And then I'll see a small video pop up with the face of my boss yelling at me that I'm late for work.

So I order my gifts, make an online reservation for dinner at a local restaurant and rush off to work.

then your computer will be super huge laaa

I've always dreamed of a 3d computer, one which displays a hologram from a hovering device that follows your movements. Fromt the hologram, you'll be able to reach in and enter files/folders by touching them or squeezing them w/e. The whole hologram display area is your desktop. At the same time, you're able to make certain parts of the hologram invisible, allowing you to see through in case you're walking when using the pc. Everything is conducted in 3d, imagine creating your 3d character/house by touch! No more keyboardsmouse/monitor!! Only a hovering pc. And of course it runs of sunlight to be energy efficient.

i've imagined a virus.. not computer.

a hybrid virus, that can attack pc and at the same time infected human...

probably will be exist in real world, but it already exist in movie, like the iRobot.

oh crap, US already hv this tech, it already exist, maybe we need to wait for a decade to get this kind of tech comeing to malaysia

and u dont need to married lar, ur computer is ur GF/wife...

already exist long time ago, imagine u didnt open ur computer casing for few years, and then suddenly u open it u'll see a inches of dust, while cleaning it, u suck the dust into ur nose, finally lung cancer


well, my aimagination was simple and already exist, i just wish for a portable desktop with a on-screen display, like the GRAW, but more high tech, the on-screen display will be the size of the transparent glasses and we can wear it like normal glasses, and the mini desktop can monitoring our heart beat, health condition, and even help us i dentify wat's the name of the person in front of us, and when we r holding the gun, there's a crosshair at the on-screen display, or when we throwing, the computer can actually read through our mind and then doing millions of calculation of gv a an accurate throwing point....

In this case all became 3 or 4 eyes loh... and sooner or later your brain also being control by computer and you became a slave then end of your life like a bird. This is day dreaming...

no no.. it's not like that.. what ever the computer size just let it be...
mostly all house got fridge.. remember they turn on 24hours a day..
so don't u think it's a great start for torrenting, folding..
or even future wise controlling the entire house remotely or automatically..

what ever u dreamt of.. u can schedule almost everythings...
that's will cost u a bomb now.. but who knows some other day.. it's AI HOME..

computer is just like a robot:
1. A robot may not injure a human being or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm.
2. A robot must obey orders given to it by human beings except where such orders would conflict with the First Law.
3. A robot must protect its own existence as long as such protection does not conflict with the First or Second Law.

remember this lar, even robot hv their laws, still need to say about processor??

My wish is simple, i don't wish for a super duper buper computer, i just wish screamyx gives us the real speed that they promised us.
So that we can download & upload at the real speed.

Example:
If you apply Screamyx 1MB, that's what you get, Download torrent @ 1024KBPs & Upload torrent @ 384KBPs just like what they promised.

But then, it's Malaysia man, Malaysia Boleh!
Who would argue on what Telekom is giving us? LOL

lol... You think I dont know you copy those from iRobot movie kah? It's a matter of time the robots takes over.

that's maybe bcoz of stupid programmer..

You go here and read before complaining about streamyx speed >>> http://202.188.95.52:8080/speedometer/faq.html

Why is my throughput lower than the line speed I purchased?
Communications equipment vendors like to think in terms of low level ATM data rates without regard to the structure or content of the data. ATM is a protocol for transferring data between two points. Internet uses IP as the protocol for communicating, therefore, and in particular, TCP/IP. So your data is going over your DSL line via TCP/IP over ATM.

TCP has an overhead in transmission that can be about 5-10%, but ATM overhead is more like 15%. So you can expect to lose up to 25% of your purchased speed at least when counting application data transfer rate. Making up a rule of thumb here: Given a broadband line speed, dividing by 8 and taking off 25% is a reasonable estimate of the maximum likely data download speeds (in bytes of data) you will manage to get.

There are additional factors affecting the throughput results. There are applications running that usually take up a small amount of bandwidth to communicate with their servers, therefore only the remaining bandwidth is available for the throughput test and the results will be lower. The Operating System TCP settings will also affect the results because it is usually not optimized.

i get the source from here, i just remember about this 3 laws, originally, i get to know this 3 laws from the documentation films in discovery science channel

hmmm~ i wish that i can plug mouse, keyboard, projector or lcd, and otherb peripheral to my body~ if dont have mouse or keyboard.. juz use mind power to do all task~ but all homo sapiens only have dual core, no quad or octal~ so... kinda slow.. ekekekeke.. but if include medula oblongata, it'll become tri-core like amd x3...

You guys should see this too:
The Next Twenty Five Years of Gaming
An Amazing Read.

LOL, the hardass moves again.
I'm not complaining.

Read my post properly meat bag.
I'm only wishing that i could get the real speed. The real speed of 1024KBPs of download.

Understand?

and the graphic processor, our brain is a powerful graphic processor, with the best cooling, idle at 37c, fully load at 37c too^^ our brain can actually create their own crysis!!

real speed? open a website just like u open folder in ur PC? upload file just like the speed of u copying the file??

1024MB??? (MegaByte) Streamyx offer 1024 KiloBaudPerSecond not KiloBytePerSecond wor... some more torrent is also depend on user not the ISP dl/up connection speed.
I notice you always use the meat bag word, kind of gross you should not practise it.

This post has been edited by mgxbox: Nov 20 2007, 07:11 PM

Wow, you're good in pointing out other people small mistakes but you never accept your mistakes huh?

ROFLMAO

Owh, about the meat bag word, yes, i do use it a lot.
But do you really understand the meaning of the word meat bag?

Because if you do, you wouldn't be complaining like a kid loosing his candy right now.

I LOL'ed at you again and again.

EDIT:
By the way, this is a day dreaming thread, which we all know that those thing we dream would never happen in the near future, at least not in the next 1 ~ 2 years. So, why take things seriously? Try to calm down kid.

This post has been edited by sHawTY: Nov 20 2007, 07:21 PM

No flame war please.

To sum up the future: The Matrix, Robot take over the world, human integrate directly into computer. Haha.

maybe in the future we can upgrade our brain too, like put a dual core processor into our brain, gives us X2 performance

but now the scientist hv done research on those brain neurone, it can actually works with the processor, they take the neurone from the brain of a rat and put it inside the processor, and those neurone can fly aircraft simulator well just after few try......

You really need to change the way you speak ... the way you speak really disturbing. No point talking to a snake <<< You like that? No one like that kind of talking and I bet you dont like it either. Always remember that.

Except that our brain is more powerful than any computer in the market right now.

ya, but our brain cant do million of calculation at the same time, but i can sure that our brain r more powerful that a 8800 ULTRA....

Without human brain no computer brain for sure no matter right now or future.

for me ... my idea computer arent a huge n money eating baby just enought me 2 web browersing+normal game then is ewnought

And you should remember how to talk to other people too.
Remember that "tray processor" thread?

Look back at the way you talk to other people whose trying to correct your mistake.
Dude, before even trying to correct other people mistake, correct your own first.

You're talking like you're so perfect.
ROFLMAO.

LOL to a n00b who he think he knows everything & he never make mistake.

EDIT:
I don't talk like this with other people, i only talk like this with the likes of you. Capiche?

The topic is about Create your own concept of computer not live with it concept computer leh, kawan.

Added on November 20, 2007, 7:54 pmI already change the way I used to talk only you didn't notice it. You should learn your own lesson and stop picking on me, do you understand or not? I dont want to fight with you but if you insist I will have to press the REPORT button for picking on me.

lol, nice read. Thanks for sharing.
I think it's a little bit too imaginative. And about the graphics part, we are still far from enough processing power. Right now it's rasterize graphics, but in the future, we're moving towards radiosity or ray tracing rendering. Ray tracing was used in many animated movie including "Cars", but they are not real time and takes a farm of computer.

I think graphics should one day be able to render ray tracing in real time with just one single graphic card, not with an entire room filled with computers

Kilo BAUD per second?

I think it's 1024k bits, not baud.

Wooooo...
Someone has just pressed the report button..

I'm scared.

You sure it was kilobits not kilobaud? My mistake, sorry.

Added on November 20, 2007, 8:40 pmYou really asking for it. Done, reported.

This post has been edited by mgxbox: Nov 20 2007, 08:40 PM

ROFLMAO, you're talking like i'm scared of your report.

You should learn to calm yourself down kid.
I pity you, i really do.

No time to entertain your sad spamming, bye bye.. I got better thing to do than wasting my time on you.

I wish my car was a super computer

It's kilobits per second, not kilobaud.

8bits makes up 1 byte.

After proper division, you get 128kbps.

Then add PPPOE overhead, TCP overhead...

100kbps would just be right.

I would definately want a pc as an oven, sure saves electricity and the oven is always ready to do some baking/cooking

Sigh....i wish i had a computerized house....

i wish to intergrate into the pc system

instead of a slow clumsy body

my neurons will be directly stick onto the processor die

and all my thoughts will be directly linked to the processor

decission will be made in 1/100000000000000 of a seconds

reality is not whats surrounding me

but what i create around me



no to the best part

i will make love/give pleasure/do pain through electron transmiting to other neural computer

i will procreate using cloning technology of my neurons onto another processor die

or a bit more saucy

combining my half DNA with another half DNA from another neural-computer onto the proc die

the DNA of my legacy will be tweak to be the best



howzat for a concept computer

I LOL'ed , same as Shawty, @mgxbox.
Sorry for my off topic discussion,

mgxbox, i think you really need to change your attitude.
from previous thread like Ageia Physx Card, we can see that you rude alot of times at there. Even here
Even you reported Shawty, still no use, reason ? I think he can ban you

-------
my Concept of computer is...can let me enjoy all what the things i want. Including teleport of a person through anything

Qouted for the truth.

This post has been edited by sHawTY: Nov 21 2007, 02:47 PM

wuk aloh you guys...

anyway... mine easy

i want the FPS became like reality, meaning, i can actually hold a gun, i can go prone, i can go peek left/right, jump, duck just like in a real life, plus, with T-Carrier (Level 5), that's what i want...

i want small stick-on sensors to be on parts of our body, so tht we can move like in real game.

And when you get shot in the nuts?

there's vibrator on it... trrrrrtt..trrrrrttttt..

hope can get a computer with onli PDA size and gt video projector tht use to show the screen on the wall..

mgxbox... and shawty... i kinda wonder if it's cuz of the semi rojak english being used tat cuz all this mess or wat... but mgxbox is really being hated by say every1...?

BTW... my concept of computer is using the human brain as the Arithmatic Logic Unit to control other electronic devices either by using brain waves or our nerves... something similar to Doctor Octopus's mechanical arms but wif other purposes... for example we can operate a washing machine by connecting some kind of port to it and juz think of wat to do... or we can juz connect to printers and draw pictures or prepare documents... can even write diary and store it in a harddisk... in the end... we do a lot of jobs by juz sitting around and think... now tat's personal computing to me... By tat time i think Razer and Logitech might go bankrupt or have to switch their products already...

P/S:- This is juz a NBTD imagination of mine... Pls don flame me mgxbox...

Remember kids that baud is AN ANALOG CONCEPT NOT RELATED TO DIGITAL SIGNALING AND THROUGHPUT. It's a measure of tonal or signal changes within the signal give a specific bandwidth and doesn't take into account encoding.

I'm quite sure.

I wanna build a self improving machine with neural networks that'll pass a turing test and gain sentience, and rule over the human race with our utilitarian happiness as it's goal.
