I believe the next multi-billionaire will be the person who develops and releases something like what the Macintosh Plus was when it came out, a standalone, fully featured computer that comes with all the most useful applications most people want or need, easily up-gradable, though likely not necessary, and compatible with all your work from other systems & devices.

@Euphoria So an iMac then? Though the upgradability is crippled these days.

@Angostura And there's the problem. If it can't keep up with future needs and isn't powerful enough to begin with it's going to lose it's value really quickly.
Clearly I didn't describe well enough what I really think is needed. I'd better work on that!

@Euphoria Sure, though to be fair, I get about 6 years use out of the beasties on average and my Mac Plus didn't last that long.

@Angostura Do you? That's pretty impressive. I haven't yet had a computer for that long that could do everything I've wanted it to. In truth I probably had the Mac Plus for a very short time--traded computers with my mom--but the Mac II I had was great. I had that longer than anything else since.
