Maximum PC: It’s been a slow build over the last several years, but for the first time ever, NPD is reporting that tablet displays are shipping in greater quantities than those destined for notebooks. This doesn’t mean notebook computers are dead by any stretch of the imagination, but it does bring to light an interesting trend that is only likely to accelerate.
Let me think who thought of the idea, aahh M$ and IBM.
Was it a success no.
What happened to it, it joined the list of failed tablets/laptop hybrids.
Q Why bring it back?
A. To see if companies like M$ and IBM can revive shit products from the past to sell like the iPad.
Fail.
At least with the new wave of hybrids you have a full blown computer vs a shitty hampered ipad.
