I wonder what changes the numbers make over the last decade or so. I wonder if they are cooling to e-books or it’s just taken this long to get this warm to them.
Would you say they prefer full on laptops to tablets?
Personally, I’m still for the full-blown laptop because I want a nice reliable keyboard, over a tablet. (Yes I know you can get bluetooth keyboards but they only work until they don’t.) I’m currently on a Toshiba Utrabook and I’d put that up against any tablet. (Also, I prefer full programs over apps for most of what I do. i.e. Office.)
