    Yep exactly. Many people in 1975 might have thought a smartphone was some kind of trick, but the professor I’m thinking of was very familiar with digital electronics and would know it was absolutely impossible to build such a thing at that time. I would really love to tell him all about the Internet etc. And of course when to sell his house and buy Microsoft stock lol.
