I for one would NEVER say the PC will be king, because it is more powerful. There's too many ways around the problem. First technology evolves. By 2020 your google glasses will probably be more powerful then the imac i'm currently using to type this comment. If you still don't have enough processing power, there's always the cloud. 5g will be just about ready, with speeds around 1Gbps a second, so bandwidth won't be a major issue either. However, your point about screen size is really important. The major benefit a PC has today is the giant monitor that's attached to it. But let's look at mainframes. Its true giant IBM mainframes are still around today, but thats more of an issue of legacy software as opposed to hardware benefits. The trend for performing those same tasks today in new development seems to be hundreds of servers with commodity hardware running scalable software. The hardware changed, and the software changed to adapt to it. I think that's a really interesting concept. The idea that the application will adapt to the hardware, instead of the hardware adapting to the application. While I feel more confortable with having a large monitor with a million graphical interface apps open at once, its not necessarily the best solution for productively producing new content. Google glasses for instance allow a glimpse into a possible future. What if instead of working at a desk doing 3D modeling with a mouse and computer, you used your hands to sculpt a model like it's clay with augmented reality? What if interfaces like Emotiv replace the need for a mouse?
