20 Declassified Facts About The Mission: Impossible Series

20. M:I3 Used The Smallest Real-Life PC

About 43 minutes into Mission: Impossible 3, Ethan pulls an OQO personal computer out of a dummy Bible. When the movie came out (2006), Guinness World Records had named the OQO, slightly larger than a BlackBerry, as the smallest fully functional PC. Its slogan, "Anytime/Anywhere Productivity," seems like something Ethan would appreciate.

Breaking records isn't a guarantee of long-term success, however. By April 2009, OQO was deader than Betamax, having been acquired by a rival and then shut down altogether. And its record has long since been broken. Though Guinness won't confirm, Intel now claims to have the smallest functioning PC. It's about four inches long, or about the size of a five-pack of chewing gum.
