Saw a totally deranged headline this morning and after briefly recoiling and shaking my head I realized it's CES, where covering deranged announcements is mandatory for the tech press.

I am so glad that I no longer ever have to go to CES.

for the record, the deranged headline was:

@Timschmitz Bloomberg calls laptops "traveler units"
@jsnell Sounds like something from a pretty mid sci-fi story
