The Future of Computing

Check out www.zonbu.com (or http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zonbu) to see what the future of computing will look like. The concept should be very interesting to the telecoms (desperately trying not to become just another public utility), any actor in the hardware market (dell, hp, etc.), Apple (thinking differently about their .mac-service), and the OLPC-people.

Zonbu and similar projects have a chance to shape the institutional ecology of computing. The combination of open source, community entrepreneurship, and bundling products into services will change how we think and source technologies.
