This might very well happen for a lot of casual uses, so I don't disagree with the notion that iPad could cannibalize some portion of Mac sales. But these various little things aren't going to replace real computers for doing real work any time soon. It's not so much the capabilities as the physical interface. I am NOT going to spend all day every day squinting at a tiny screen and typing on a tiny fake keyboard. I can't see many office workers wanting to work that way, either. ************************************************************************* ** List info, subscription management, list rules, archives, privacy ** ** policy, calmness, a member map, and more at http://www.cguys.org/ ** *************************************************************************
