My real concern with the trend towards tablets and phones is the lack of hardware-configurability that PC's had. I mean, with my wife's gaming rig I'm constantly updating video cards, RAM, etc... but I haven't touched her tablet (for obvious reasons) except to install a few "external source" apps.
Makes me kinda sad, but I can also remember having to solder RAM onto the motherboard of my Dad's first PC. Those days are long gone, and so too will these days soon be long gone.
