Read MoreBusinesses Integrating Tablets
Since the iPad came out in 2012, more consumers have adopted the tablet for everyday use. People who really need a heavy duty laptop with killer processor power and high end graphics capabilities are still going to be lugging around 5 lb portable computers for a while, since no tablet currently available can match that kind of raw power.
