Thoughts of a Wandering Gamer

Tablet Wars.

There were tablets before the iPad, but ever since Apple debuted its sleek, touchscreen device - known to some as a bigger iPhone without the ability to make calls - the market has exploded. Now every major computer and smartphone manufacturer wants in on the action. Companies like Samsung, HP, Motorola, Verizon, Google and many more have released or are planning to release competitors to the iPad.

With dual core processors, increased ram and new operating systems included in the newer tablets, they are becoming a viable alternative to owning a computer. What will the computer landscape look like in a few years? Will the majority of people still use bulky desktops and laptops, or will the market be dominated by these thin and light devices that can perform all the basic functions necessary for the average user? Tablets are becoming more and more capable and it's hard to ignore the convenience afforded by their size and battery life. 

There will most likely always be a need for traditional computers since they can house larger and more powerful components, but I think tablets may be a realistic alternative for the majority of home users within the next 10-15 years.

I, however, will be sticking with my gaming PC and laptop. How else am I going to max The Witcher 2 and Skyrim?
