Wow hearing him explain the concept of a mouse to a room full of people who may or may not be convinced that computers are the future is really interesting.

One of the most important demos in tech next to the invention of fire and the iPod

Whenever I've watched this, I've stopped it several times and just tried to think of/like the people in the audience. What were they thinking? What previous and familiar techniques and technologies were they using as the lens to see this through? If you had them brainstorm in small groups about how they could use this if they had it for the next year, what would they think it was good for? Is it something they saw as useful for themselves or just for record-keepers and report writers?

love the wit

posting this before someone inevitably rails against your obviously genuine belief that the iPod was the greatest invention ever. X_X
