This entire article is written as a proposal to a coprporation for a new, very unique computing system. Please offer criticism and suggestions to improve the system, and tell me whether you think it could work. What exactly is the "Edge Computing System" And more importantly, why would I want to go to the trouble of developing it? The Edge Computing System is just that, an entire system, not just a new type of computer or new software suite. The Edge is the means by which you can have your personal computer with you at all times.

Sounds a lot like Knoppix, i think some concepts are open for change, how will computing look like in the future, will we still use Hard Disks? Or will we use an intern memory flash disk , that loads the OS in ram, and runs with out any spinning parts? Maybe we need an lighter Operating System too, that can run on less ram then what we are used to now, on low end systems without complains.
I tested knoppix, it works well, but has its hardware issues. And the compressed file system works faster than the uncompressed one, so an uncompressed file system would slow it down.
I sure hope that some changes will take place, good luck with the project.
