The way you imagine productivity works like that. The past is funny, because it seems like that way worked for us and so it should be good enough for anyone.

As I watch my kids using iPads regularly, I realize they don't really know anything at all about a 'desktop' or why its so complicated. We can argue well they need to learn how a computer works, its important etc etc. Maybe they don't for the most part and could just build on top of our knowledge base to get to the next place. We are the old people telling kids to get off our lawn.

exactly. the future of productivity looks like high-waisted pants and talking to your OS. offices will still be open-plan.

Good luck mixing vocal user interface and open-plan offices!
