The tablet is not a paradigm shift; it is an additional tool, a new configuration of PC. It will influence PC design, but powerful desktop workstations will still dominate a large number of computing applications. It needs to be understood that when this issue was first discussed it was the "PC" against the "Mainframe" but today a "PC" has vastly more capability than the early "Mainframe". Now that was a paradigm shift driven by the physics of microprocessors.
