This is where I see the traditional PC headed. Many people think that MS and traditional PC makers are taking a risk by making convertible/dual-use devices, but Apple is also taking a risk by not doing it. If the market decides that having a tablet that can multi-task as a fully fledged PC is a good idea, then Apple has a problem, because they can't make OSX touch friendly in a hurry. Their other option is make iOS more capable and make it run on Macbook level devices, but this won't be a quick task. Many people will say that dedicated devices like tablets and laptops are what people want, but there are plenty of cases where a multi-use device succeeds. The obvious case is the smartphone - it's basically combined a phone, MP3 player and camera together, and people love it.
