Today is just so ... Yesterday

Even if you should not know the name Intel, chances are great that your computer (if it's a Windows PC) does run on a central processor chip made by the company of that name.

They have a logo saying that Today is So Yesterday, and - given that - they are looking at tomorrow: the brilliant future that's completely different not only from yesterday but also from today ... which is yesterday, anyway!

And it seems they have great plans for you ... implanting a chip in your brain so you can e.mail and twitter right from the source. No need for mouse or keyboard, no more remote control for your TV-DVD-HD Info-tainment Center - you'll do it all as if by telepathy.

What they don't say, of course, is that a chip in your brain also brings us to the ultimate stage of the Big Brother 1984 Orwellian Nightmare ... Dig It?

Is your cat chipped? Your dog? Just for safety and security, so you can find them if they get lost?
Well, you're next!

Can't believe that? Read this article on Computer World.
