How much do you think technology will grow in 20 years? Do you think we will finally see hover cars? Or do you think the growth in technology will be modest? I do believe tower based computers will almost be obsolete by that time. Desktop cases will probably be considered "beastly" by that time as well. I guess what I'm really asking is do you think in just 20 years earth will be as futuristic as the settings in Terminator or I-Robot?
*I don't think I-Robot was the greatest movie ever, I just mentioned it for a visual reference.

Growing Old Disgracefully I'll be keeping my 1982 Ducati and terrorizing the areas that I'm still capable of traveling to on it.
When that beast was new we didn't have computers as we know them today or even the belief that we could all have a computer to use when we wanted to. The development of Motor Vehicles hasn't progressed that much and if anything the Fly/Drive by Wire Approach adopted by Toyota and which has proved so unsuccessful is likely to prevent development along those lines any further.
While Electronics themselves have radically changed and Silicon Based technology has made leaps & bounds from what it was back them I personally think you'll find what is used in 20 years time wasn't even thought of today.
I think technology will be at some level like the recent Bruce Willis movie, "Surrogate" I believe was the name? Where we actually will have our brains hooked up to a digital world, I guess like the Matrix, but the digital world would probably be more like Sims. Of course, the Digital world would be pretty awesome if it was on par with .hack!
