The virtual laptop sounds like a program that came with my old 90 mhz
Thinkpad -- I think Ted Selker worked on it. It had a photorealistic
virtual view of the laptop that you could turn around in different
directions to see the various parts labeled, and it was integrated with
documentation and status displays and control panels related to all the
gadgets and interface plugs. For example, you could bring up the volume
control panel by clicking on the speaker, and stuff like that! <br>

<pre wrap="">Well, Albert still got a point here. How about having a virtual
laptop? Something with a lot of labels and explanations that you can
take apart (and reassemble with just a button click)?

Heh. Do you know how many languages are used in Pakistan, alone?
Labeling the hardware is insane.
