We're on the same page.  With tablet OS we are in a similar market to
the early PC except things are happening faster.

At this point it looks like Apple's IOS and Google's Android will be the
winners. HP's announcement also included a desire to sell its entire PC
line. I think it should have done this shortly after IBM sold to Lenovo.
