PenLight (touchscreen Duo) video

[pl212]

This is quite an extensive (42 min) piece from This Does Not Compute about the cancelled touchscreen Duo:

He has interviews with several key engineers, and access to what seem to be working units...

It's a great video, I'd highly recommend watching it

I found those interviews to be fascinating. I wish there were more videos with original Apple engineers to capture their stories.

I had no idea the PenLite was actually production ready.

weird, he shows off powerbook schematics that aren't available. really hope they aren't hoarding them. that would be VERY problematic.

I don’t understand. Who might be hoarding them and why would it be problematic?
