Rumor has it that Apple is developing what is probably the worst idea ever. Now, I quickly add that when Apple yanked 3.5 inch floppies1 from all of their computer designs, I thought that was the worst idea ever, and it turned out to be the best idea ever. But this one, I don't know ... a mouse…

Given that we have roll-up keyboards and are looking at roll-up TVs/monitors, how long is it going to be before we have a roll-up laptop?

Now that we also have projectors, we could have a roll-up laptop with a built-in projector that creates an image as large as you like on the nearest wall. Remember that you heard it here first!
