His hardware needs are pretty spartan, but he needs: an iphone, PDA, laptop with an ssd, computer, usbsticks, a kindle and an ipad. I guess I don't want to know what non-spartan is. Or was this some obscure form of sarcasm?
It was wry I suppose, but I think I didn't explain myself very well in the interview. I tried to convey that I'm trying to move towards a more Spartan arrangement. I don't think I mentioned USB sticks, but in any case I no longer use them because of Dropbox. Likewise, I no longer need a PDA because my iPhone/iPad cover the old tasks. Also, I no longer need a computer because Laptop, etc. The point is that I'm less reliant on multiple devices and changing my habits to need even less.
