In 1980, "portable" computers were like carrying a briefcase full of bricks, with machines like the Osborne 1 weighing around 24 pounds.
By the 1990s, laptops like the IBM ThinkPad and Apple PowerBook made portability a bit more practical, though still hefty enough to double as a doorstop.
Fast forward to the 2000s, and we have ultrabooks, tablets, and smartphones.
Today, our "portable" tech is so advanced that even a lawyerās least favorite document fits into their pocket.

Donāt over think cleaning your cell phones and tablets!
Katie Corner, over at C-Net, wrote an article about how to clean the screens of your mobile devices. It pretty much comes down to the simple task of only using a micro-fiber cloth. āMaybe,ā you might slightly dampen the fabric. But, you never use an industrial cleaner, e.g., Windex, as it may erode the āanti-fingerprintā coating or other special coatings that puts the extra shine on your smartphone or tablet.
Also, be wary of sticking things or even blowing air into the ports and openings (speakers & power ports) of your mobile device. You may end up pushing gunk into the devices instead of removing it.
There are devices out there that will irradiate germs on your devices. I have no opinion on these devices themselves. But, they donāt kill viruses.
I think, in the end, the best way to keep your devices clean to wash your hands regularly!
MICHAEL D.J. EISENBERG IS A WASHINGTON, DC ATTORNEY WHO LOVES HIS TECH.
Over the years I have found myself helping others (especially lawyers) young and old with their tech questions. With this blog, I hope to share my knowledge on a broader scale. My postings are based on the questions I have been asked in the past and trends I see for the future.
I hope my postings can be used by lawyers of any tech skill. And, in the end, provide the readers valuable insight on how lawyers can better their legal practice and their own personal life with the use of technology.
