It's not entirely inappropriate when you consider how the economics work. Most people who use computers really don't do much beyond browsing the web, reading e-mail, and balancing their checkbooks. Ergo, they consume content and use web apps. Most of the people for whom mobile devices like the iPad are inadequate for doing their job are creating content (e.g. games, movies, books, etc) and web applications. Revenue from the internet is from people using applications, viewing and clicking on ads, and buying content. You don't need a PC for that. We're not quite at the point where an average user doesn't need a personal computer no matter the OS, but we're close.
