"The success of this kickstarter project shows that there's no real use case for tablets except surfing/reading/consuming/procrastinating on the sofa..." Surfing, reading, consuming and procrastinating is 95% of the time normal people use a computer, and there is nothing wrong with that. I have news for you, before you are able to write you have to read, a lot. Surfing, consuming and getting in touch with other people is also part of the creation process for a lot of people, maybe not for the isolated geek who has no friends and believes that real work is working on problems without interaction with people(as if their work were going to be used by androids). There is more consumers than producers, this is expected. It is a tool, like a car is used for transportation, and not for changing parts of it like a lego. I am a vim user, I know how to compile the linux kernel, disassemble anything and create super complex and amazing programs but when I want to plan where I am going to be the weekend I love the Apple multitouch tech so much on the map application. I prefer browsing web pages and watching educational videos on a tablet. I can tell my parents or grandpas or a kid how a tablet app work in 2 minutes, impossible to do with a pc because interface is seriously wrong. I repeat, is totally wrong if people that are not geeks can't use it. Some geeks hate it because it removes the "guru aura" they have over their family or friends as the only one that knows how to use the "broken machine". I want it all, the power of a linux or mac machine with the intuitive interface of tablets. In the future you wont have to choose, you will be able to use ubuntu(or other distros, or windows, or macOSX) on tablets. "clumsy form factor"??? You really hate those that do not believe in the same things you do, you are blind from your hate. It is agile form factor, I touch it moves, instantly. PCs are the clumsy ones. You want to zoom, you search for an icon, then click on it, then it zooms stumbled like an octogenarian.
