Smrt's right, work place PCs (for the 95% of the working work that doesn't need a hardcore processor and a metric shit-ton of RAM/Storage) are getting smaller and smaller. Thinclients are huge in healthcare and other companies that only use one or two pieces of software per user. There is a limit of the level of productivity the user will get by having a faster PC and it's not that high.
Faster boot times, heavier limitations to internet browsing and software (the non-productive kinds), and faster repair times (all user config and data is stored on the server, so just restore a image that works) are huge benefits to companies looking to cut costs.
I want a tablet and I'm thinking I'm close to getting an iPad 1st gen from a client who wants to sell it. There are few nice things I want a tablet for (ereader is top on the list), but I don't see me giving up my personal computer.
Computer gaming will never die for me, I can't FPS without a mouse. Having two monitors will never die for me, I can't live without it. There is just some things a tablet style computer will never be able to do for me.
I'm on the fence with tablets until I own one. I also said the same thing about a smart phone and now I couldn't live without it.
