Mark Cuban thinks that Personal Computing will no longer be the same in the future. that future generations of gaming consoles will be our personal computers, and that we will stop having to buy a PC anymore.
I mean, think of it, without the hassle of the small screen, you can have your PS3, or XBOX 360 connected to your brand new 32 inch HDTV flat screen hanging in your wall in your living room. you can be hanging out watching the game, then get a little popup that tells you "you got new mail" in the bottom right corner. You then 'tell' your tv to "check mail" and it opens up a web browser, while pausing the game, opens up the email, and you control your screen via your wireless mouse and keyboard while sitting on your couch, still, you send the email, then click send. and switch back to your game. Oh, did I mention that your gaming console is also your new Tivo?
well, how about word processing, and other 'office tools' that you are used to using on your PC? well, you can use google applications that run just as good as MS Office, or any other tool you have used before. On top of that, the new gaming consoles could be made so that you can install programs on them similar to the way you would install a new program on your computer, such as turbo tax.
so, you can accumulate all your photo/video/audio editing/viewing software on your TV, your TV watching on the TV, your gaming on the TV, you can play all the DVDs or Blu-ray disks on your TV, you can do your word processing on your TV.
And finally, porn videos can return to where they began. the TV.
