I really enjoyed your review, and the paces through which you put the porta-CAD program. Even more than toting large spreadsheets around, the thought of really doing any CAD work on a ppc is daunting. Your 'reading a blueprint through a straw' was great, and totally apt.
Not an architect here, but an engineer who specialized in managing large engineering CAD systems, it was really interesting to see the progression. I (ahem) still remember when we had huge 1MB memory boards for the Vax computers our system ran on. Not quite eraser shields, but quite a while ago, nonetheless.
Great article!
