I saw somewhere the claim that PCs are on their way out, being replaced by smartphones and such, and that the only use for PCs would be in businesses where features such as spreadsheets are needed.
I dunno; I have no real interest in a phone that does anything besides make a phone call. I can’t see going to an online data center for storage of my personal files. The only way a smartphone could replace all of the functions of my computer would be if it were a computer. In which case, that tiny screen and keyboard and low resolution graphics would make it nearly impossible to use.
the smartphone, when used at home, will hook up to a tv through the hdmi out. so, if you have a modern big screen tv, you’re set there. You can attach an external keyboard if you like, and use the tablet or smartphone itself as the mouse.
Just yesterday I wanted to order pizza. Instead of getting up and looking for an old menu, or a yellow pages, I sat on my couch and used my phone to go online to find the number.
