45 Years Ago, The iPad Was First Used By Astronauts Before Another Computer Tried To Kill Them All

The first mobile call was made 40 years ago today, on a device based on the communicators used in the original “Star Trek,” and the iPad was apparently introduced in 2001: A Space Odyssey, released 45 years ago this week. It’s a good thing that show business invented the future for us so long ago, because god knows we can’t come up with anything on our own.
