Smartphones and tablet PC’s will have an increasing role in our lives, but to count out the desktop so fundamentally is flawed. In the consumer realm, this could definitely be true as netbooks and portable computing devices continue to gain market share, but business computing still involves a lot of people sitting at desks with desktops.
