Tablet wont replace PCs and latops ?

REPLACEMENT, NO WAY.

BECAUSE THE FIRST POINT IS COMFORT LEVEL AND SECOND POINT IS CONFIGURATIONS (MAY VARY OR MAY NOT VARY DEPENDS ON THE KIND OF MOTHERBOARD).

AND MOREOVER DESKTOP PCs ARE EASY TO HANDLE WHENEVER THERE ARE SERIOUS GLITCHES BECAUSE HARDWARE ENGINEERS HIT THE KEYBOARD BRUTALLY TO REPAIR A COMPUTER MOST OF TIMES, WHEREAS IN LAPTOPS UNFORTUNATELY MAY NOT HAVE A CHANCE TO HIT THE KEYBOARD, SINCE IT IS VERY DELICATE, BUT CONFIGURATIONS MAY VARY BETWEEN DESKTOP PC AND LAPTOP AGAIN DEPENDS ON THE MOTHERBOARD.

FOR EXAMPLE: - UPTO WINDOWS XP THERE WERE NO CHANCES TO LOCK DRIVE WITH PASSWORDS, BUT AS THE TIME CHANGED AND YEARS MOVED ON WE GOT WINDOWS VISTA WITH AN OPTION TO LOCK DRIVES WHICH IS CALLED "BITLOCKER DRIVE ENCRYPTION" WE SIMPLY USED TO LOCK THE DRIVE JUST BY ENABLING OPTION, BUT THERE WAS A LITTLE TWIST SINCE IT NEEDED A SUPPORT OF HARDWARE CHIP WHICH IS CALLED "TPM" "TRUSTED PLATFORM MODULE" THIS IS BUILT IN CHIP ON MOTHERBOARD TO SUPPORT BITLOCKER DRIVE ENCRYPTION.

NEITHER BLUE TOOTH NOR PEN DRIVE CAN ACCESS THE DRIVE. HOW IS IT?

THIS IS BUILT IN CHIP TPM.


TABLETS MAY HAVE ITS OWN ADVANTAGES BUT, IT DOES NOT MEAN IT WILL REPLACE PCs AND LAPTOPS.

I CAN SAY REPLACEMENT IS JUST LIKE A DAYDREAM.

I agree with Ruchi that it is "Long way to go for the tablets and the iPads.."

WELL SAID

Yes Ruchi I agree with you as the time pass by the size of laptop will go down and features will be added on.

Here are the advantages and disadvantages of Tablet PC. In my view disadvantages are heavier and thus TABLET PC would not be in a position to replace PC's/ Laptop's.

Advantages of Tablet PC versus Laptop

• The primary advantage of the tablet PC is that it is lighter than most laptops. They are also smaller in sizes, which means you can take them quite easily tucked under your arm from one place to another. Most laptops need to be lugged wherever you go. Tablet PCs score on account of their lightness of weight.
• The tablet PC can be laid flat on the working surface. This is ideal when you are in a conference. The laptop screen needs to be kept vertical and that might obstruct clear view of the person sitting in front of you.
• The tablet PCs take their input basically with the help of a special pen. Your handwriting is the input. That can be a good choice if you are doing something artistic. You can fine-tune your input better with a pen than with a mouse or a touchpad.
• Over time, you will learn to use the pen in the right manner, and even customize the pen to your tablet PC. There are different gestures that you can apply to the pen, which will produce different kinds of results. Eventually this will become easier for you than creating results with the keyboard and mouse.
• Finally, it must be said that a tablet PC becomes more personal to the user than a laptop. Since everyone has a different style of holding and using pens, the tablet PC will become unique to the user, and even the user will become unique to the pen. In fact, there are handwriting recognition applications that will train the tablet PC to understand your handwriting and convert it into text to up to 99% accuracy. 

Disadvantages of Tablet PC versus Laptop

• Some people might find the screen size of the tablet PC too small in comparison with a laptop. The maximum size the tablet PC screen can go up to is 14.1'.
• Another handicap with a tablet PC is that it does not have an inbuilt optical drive, though you can connect it externally. But this could be a deterrent to some users. The reason behind not including the optical drive is to maintain the low mass of the device.
• A tablet PC is not good if other people besides you are planning to share it. The tablet PC understands your handwriting and writing gestures, and it may not understand those of others. For that reason, tablet PCs are good only when single users intend to use it for their entire lifetime. Laptops can be used by any number of users without such concerns.
• There are more chances of screen damage to tablet PCs than to laptops. This is because of the kind of input they take, with the pen device. You will need a special screen guard for the tablet PC installed when you purchase it.
• Technically, inputs with tablet PCs become slower than those with laptops. The reason here is that tablet PCs take handwriting inputs, and that cannot match the speed of the keyboard and mouse, which the laptops use.
• Tablet PCs are also costlier than laptops. That must be one of the clinching points in making your decision, but you do need to check out the features that they provide too.
