Here is a reasoned counterpoint to the notion that the iPad has maxed out: http://www.asymco.com/2014/04/30/the-ipad-discontinuity/ http://www.asymco.com/2014/04/30/the-ipad-discontinuity/ I know so many older people who now live entirely on their tablets - heck, in Canada, I've got family who do all their email and browsing on playbooks . Personally, I could never, ever, live without a Laptop (Not a day goes by where I don't spent at least 15 minutes on Terminal.app) - but, I totally understand how 90% of the population has different "jobs that need to be done" than myself - so there will be some tablet/Smart Phone that will take over those jobs. The 20-30% of us hackers, knowledge workers, and gamers will keep a vibrant PC / Laptop market going for at least another 5-10 years, until Tablets/Smart Phones get powerful enough to just drive a display technology and get hooked into a keyboard. That's the day that I carry my entire processing/storage/memory unit in my pocket.
