The iPod's 4,000-pound Grandfather
By Karl Schroder

Hi, All,  According to Lisa Hix, in an article called "The iPod's
4,000-Pound Grandfather" of 8 November, 2012, "An iPod's the same
thing as a giant two-ton orchestrion 100 years ago, except you can
put it in your pocket."

Does anybody have anything to say about this comment?  Here's the
article:

 [ If one ignores the silly headline, the rest of the article
 [ is pretty good.  -- Robbie  ;-)
