I also remember being struck by de Sade's will, in which he asked that his ashes be scattered to the four corners of the earth in the hope that humankind would forget both his writings and his name.

In my view the tablet and the PC are different. You can do things with the tablet if you are not encumbered by the legacy of the PC. ↗
