LOL.  I was wondering if anyone would call me on that.  How about, "no 
internal moving parts?"  :-)

I can imagine a computer with no moving parts though.  Use a projector 
for the display, and a laser/LED projection with an IR sensor for a 
keyboard (I'm pretty sure I read about that one already).  Then all you 
need are two surfaces at right angles...

Later,

"Microsoft Tax" = the additional hardware & yearly fees for the add-on
software required to protect Windows from its own poorly designed and
implemented self, while the overhead incidentally flattens Moore's Law.
