> "As investment and development dollars continue flowing into the dominant mobile platforms — Android and iOS — it’s logical to expect that every useful desktop application that hasn’t yet been adapted to them already is on its way there." I'm unsure whether some classes of desktop applications can ever be as useful on mobile platforms as they are on the desktop. I'm thinking of applications that legitimately need a lot of screen estate to stay useful like digital audio workstations or IDEs with extensive debugging support. I contend that useful desktop applications are sometimes useful precisely because they run on a desktop.
