It’s now 2015, the year that Marty McFly in the movie Back to the Future traveled to, coming from 1985.
Did you notice that Marty’s family didn’t have Internet, or iPads, or digital devices of any kind, really?
It’s cool, though, to have traveled 30 years into the future. I am here. Just can’t go back, because I don’t have a DeLorean that flies and has a flux capacitor.
I think I’ll go down to Toys R Us and get myself a hoverboard tonight after work.
I’ve been told, and haven’t found anything to contradict it, that no science fiction writer predicted the PC.
Yes: even a book written in 1980, when PCs in their infancy already existed (Apple II), they didn’t get it:

Toys R Us don’t sell hoverboards. I’VE CHECKED.
I guess it’s NAY.
