I think you've failed to grasp my point. My computer. This one, here. Not "is this in principle possible", or "has it been done in a research environment". If my computer keels over in five minutes, is this a practical procedure?
I think this gets close to my problem with it all. There's a massive lack of critical thinking about the development of technology here. What looked utopian forty years ago looks even more so now that we have a deeper understanding of the problems. Ideally it would look closer now then it did, not further away.
