Because I want technology to do what I want while I&#x27;m still young enough to enjoy it.<p>I no longer need more raw compute power, more raw storage capacity, lower storage latency IO. I have a CPU that is more than I need, with more RAM than I need, and said RAM is faster than I need, and the IOPS and round trip latency on my SSDs are better than I need.<p>What holds it all back for me? The code behind visual UI&#x27;s keep getting slower. It isn&#x27;t entirely software, it isn&#x27;t entirely hardware, but a mixture of both that screws it over for me.<p>And the ways I want to interact with computers just isn&#x27;t there yet:<p>* Microsoft did epic work on the Surface Pen, but I can&#x27;t just go buy one of those for my Windows PC<p>* Google did epic work on Google Now, but I&#x27;ll have to wait for Cortana to catch up before I get that on my PC (without being limited to just accessing it inside of Chrome)<p>* Stuff like all the non-gaming usage for things like Kinect or stuff like Leap Motion, no one is really doing anything with that for day to day stuff<p>* I wasn&#x27;t kidding about Moov, go look at the new product they just came out: possibly the best fitness tracker ever made if you&#x27;re interested in fitness coach type apps.<p>And there are other things: the desktop UI still is not based around doing tasks, and browsers suffer from this the most: no browser lets me hibernate collections of tabs (ie, entire windows) to bring up later (either on this computer, or another one; cross-computer window syncing for tracked windows would be absolutely epic).<p>I feel computers fight me on waaaaay too many things. Computers think they are the destination, but they&#x27;re really just the vehicle.
