Dr. Dave describes building a small Windows XP system that can boot from a USB thumb drive and help resuscitate a computer whose installed operating system has failed. He and Evil Steve extend the idea into a prediction of carrying an entire computer around one’s neck and connecting it to only a screen, keyboard and mouse.
