High resolution displays on laptops, SSDs in laptops.
Those are the two I can think of right now. I believe Linus (LTT) talked about this on WAN show not too long ago aswell.
It's crazy to think that the original MacBook Air had a spinning hdd, which was 1.8".
It came from the iPods at the time.
It’s crazy to think that the portable, pocket really, music player had HDD.
The Nokia N91 from 2006 also had an HDD. I assume it was the same Toshiba one that Apple used in the iPod Minis.
Every now and then I remember this, and ponder the feasibility of flash-modding a 1st gen Air with an iPod’s mod kit. Just casually rock 1tb of flash storage in that bad boy.
But they’re still too pricey to be a fuck about project, and beyond that they kinda suck.
