> Why do doctors need Glass to record notes in the background? Couldn't any computer run that software?

I'm guessing this might have to do with voice recognition tech and the doctor being able to see the notes visually. If it picks up something incorrectly, maybe the doc just turns to the computer and corrects it?

Still sounds as though a laptop would be better. Perhaps it's now improved, but the Glass screen wasn't nearly as clear to read from as a MacBook Pro screen.
