What will the next generation of computers hold for us?  If the vision
of the hardware and software developers comes true, we will all be
walking around with hand-held game sized 386's in our pockets.

Seem far fetched?  Intel is developing the technology for a computer on
a chip (x86?).  Microsoft sees the graphical user interface (GUI or
gooie) as a prime vehicle for hand helds with script recognition/pen
input.  And several hardware manufacturers are already making pocket
sized computers with keyboards; others are making keyboardless computers
with touch recognition LCD screens.

When the barrier is broken, it will put a computer in every pocket like
there is a computer on almost every desktop.  Computer literacy and
extensive classes on how to use them should disappear.  We'll all learn
to "program" them like we learn to program our VCR's (heaven help us!)
