The little big computer

OQO
There are plenty of ultra-mobile computers on the market, and most of them are beleaguered little gizmos: half the size of a laptop, but also half the speed, half the storage, half a keyboard, and in short, half-assed. In that light, it's nice to spend some time with a little machine that is full of real PC capability -- even if it comes at full PC price. It's called the Model 02, and it's made by San Fransisco-based company called OQO. The company's mission: shrink a full-scale Windows PC down to pocket size, without sacrificing usability. I'll save you the suspense: they've done it right.
