Here's some pure speculation. NI said they've had a software drivers station for a
long time. NI also makes a variety of data acquisition products, which provide digital and analog IO and hook up via usb. In fact, NI has provided them to teams
before.
Thus, going to a software drivers station on a laptop doesn't mean that you have to give up IO options. I guess we'll have to see once the
beta teams get theirs.
