While steadily enhancing accuracy and quality, software and firmware developers alike have come to grips with advancing the mode to match user requirements. Scott Eckert, CEO of tablet PC manufacturer Motion Computing (Austin, Texas) describes the evolution of the PC as a journey toward combining human intuition with the power of application handling. "In its most basic form, the PC has evolved to meet the elementary form of human-to-machine interface while enabling us an evolving opportunity to collect and manage data as a secondhand function of everyday life." Motion Computing's founders engineered the company's slate-form technology after extensive user testing revealed highest demand for not just lightweight portability, but even more a clipboard-style approach to data entry. Today, the company's largest clients include hospitals and field service companies that have since traded traditional analog paper and board in favor of tablet performance and digital ink.
