it looks nice but I bet it costs a bomb.
Posted: Jan 9, 2004 @ 4:23pmHah, OQO. There've been a million threads about it, but all we've seen is vapour, vapour, and more vapour.
Posted: Jan 9, 2004 @ 4:53pmThoughts have a bit on it too today. The consensus is, it's vapourware for sure. Right up there with Duke Nukem Forever.
And even if it wasn't, it still costs around two grand. I can buy a top-of-the-line laptop for that. And nice as the OQO is, it's still not as capable as even my old laptop - This at least has a decent keyboard and resolution!
At two grand, it'll almost exclusively be used by the business types and the likes of Philip Torrone.

Posted: Jan 9, 2004 @ 5:52pmYes but this is new news and a new device design, which means they have been active.
However, it's totally worthless.
Go buy that 8.4" TabletPC that has far more features and is far faster for $899! nVision, it's on sale now.

Either that or its going to turn into Daikatana. Go John Romero!

When [or rather, if] it gets released, it'll be up against at least Half Life 2 and Doom 3. No matter how loyal Duke Nukem fans are, it's just not going to sell like it would have two years ago. It'll be completely outdated. Hell, they had to change engines like three times. I hear right now its running on some old Unreal engine...
About the only good thing I could say about it is: by the time it's released, my PPC will be powerful enough to run it, so we finally get Duke on PPC
