If all you ever use your PC for is Hulu, then what you need is a TV, and televisions are not "post-PC", they're a different product entirely, nor will they ever replace PCs. :P
- rbarooah 16y agoSilly strawman. Actually none of them watched video at all. They used maps, google earth, the browser, a Craigslist app, the photos app, and kindle. But I guess I've fallen for a troll.
- PostOnce 16y agoNot a straw man, it was an example. I am not trolling. PCs can be used for all manner of things, some things that they are now used for are better suited to other devices. Some things are perfectly suited to PCs and other devices just fail to measure up. My point is, iPad ownership and PC ownership are not mutually exclusive. Having an iPad does not mean you are done with PCs.
- rbarooah 16y agoFair enough. I don't think that's what post-PC is intended to mean though. Really I think it's just a comment about where the growth is.
- gyom 16y agoI don't know, to me it seems like a legitimate observation and not trolling. It's not really an anti-ipad argument, but it's just a reminder that the iPad isn't a replacement for everything below a certain threshold.
