Re: Correlation != Causation
A lot of us suggested that tablets would cause a slowdown in PC sales, and then they slowed down. Maybe we were right for the wrong reasons, but I know multiple people who ditched their PC for a tablet. The kind of people who only bought a PC because it was the only way to browse the web and send/receive email don't want a PC, they want to browse the web and send/receive email. A tablet is a superior way to meet this need.
Some techies will never ever understand this, because they can only think about all the things they do with a PC that a tablet is ill suited for, or how much of a pain it would be to spend 12 hours a day in front of a tablet. They make the mistake of equating how they use a PC to how everyone else does.
