The savvy user would detect a virus in an email a mile off, whereas the non-savvy would naively open it. The savvy user is very familiar with all the latest buzzwords; the non-savvy is confused by the same technical terms. The savvy user stores their total music collection on their PC; the non-savvy uses a completely separate stereo player.

Operating systems in general have to try and please both parties as best they can. Microsoft has both Pro and Home versions of Windows, which illustrates this need. In the future the mainstream PC user will become more and more familiar with more complicated, feature-rich interfaces.

I would like to use an analogy; let's look at the Star Wars character Anakin Skywalker. If I remember correctly, in The Phantom Menace he was a clever kid, capable of building androids and flying land speeders at lightening speeds. The way that I perceive Jedi Knights is probably the similar to the way non savvy users might perceive the savvy user. The savvy user can seemingly will the computer to do just about anything they wish with rapid results ? something the non-savvy only dream of.

It might be that there will always be these two types of user; new generations and new skills will make the once savvy user into a non savvy one. Just imagine what Windows could be like if Microsoft were designing it for the likes of Anakin Skywalker? One can only imagine....

I personally like to see a PC that was not merely ultra portable that was actually wearable. This would ideally take the form of a pair of glasses that would allow the wearer to see a floating computer screen, floating in the air 3 feet in front of them. Then if it could interpret your brainwaves and in an instant convert it into a Word document ? I think that would be pretty convenient....
