I like it but I see no point in it, you'd still need a screen and a keyboard and a mouse....
Besides a normal sized computer can do much more things.
Quite impressive though

People are making laser keyboards and mouse, that could actually be put into use with this. I'm pretty sure you can find a monitor any where you go, so no problem there.
