Synthesis on Baig

Baig's major topic of interest concerning technology is how consumers can use it. While he does mention the political influence of Wayin, he is more concerned with accessibility and usability of technology for the average consumer. Baig views consumers as constantly in need of a piece of technology to be friendly and easy to use; as a solution, he sees limited but effective devices such as the Kindle E-Reader as a key to satisfaction. At the same time, he also sees the second type of society, who need more complex and business-oriented devices such as the Asus tablet, which may not be as simple as an iPad, but can do more for people who want more data and need to use it for work. However, both types of consumers seem to want their concrete goals and uses for the tablet to be fulfilled. Ultimately, Baig, who seems quite critical of the iPad, which does many things adequately, wants to see technology that accomplishes its premise to utmost perfection and satisfaction, so all consumers can stop complaining on the flaws of a multifaceted device.

    Continue to monitor the ways in which the columnist's rhetoric is demonstrated (analyze). Cite the text especially.
