Archos 10.1″ 8GB Android Tablet
Monday, August 6, 2012
It’s tough enough to make it as an author as is. I don’t need stuff like this refurbished Archos 10.1″ 8GB Android Tablet complicating things! Have you ever read Neuromancer? It’s positively laughable nowadays! Watch the original Alien movie sometime. It looks terrible!So if I write my futuristic dystopian steampunk sci-fi novel and they don’t have tablets, it looks crazy. But if I do put tablets in there, in 20 or 30 years they look as ridiculous as Case’s analog tape deck of a hacking machine! It’s a losing proposition!
I guess I’ll stick to pseudo-fantasy. The technology never changes, and if you spice it up with enough incest and sex anybody’ll buy it.
