News Analysis: Tablet PC Is PC Instead Of "Post-PC Era" Product

The term "post-PC era" is daunting. To clarify this concept, we have already reached the point where we are uncomfortable. The first thing to claim is that the post-PC era has not yet arrived.

At least the current market has not entered the post-PC era. Compared with previous products, tablet computers are indeed a major breakthrough. Their user interface is very different from that of traditional PCs. But overall, its purpose is basically the same. The more powerful a tablet is, the more traditional PC elements it absorbs. In short, tablets will become PCs and will be different PCs, but still PCs.

What needs to be clear here is that the "PC" we use in the article and the "post-PC era" advocate have a totally different understanding of the meaning of PC. Apple CEO Steve Jobs released iPad 2 last week repeatedly. Emphasize the post-PC era. Apple's PC is usually referred to as a Windows PC, and its Mac's advertisement for the PC is the best proof. PC Magazine, PC World, PC/Computing and other related magazines once pointed to Wintel World instead of Apple Macs.

But the PC we talked about in the article is a PC in a broader sense. For example, MacBook Pro, Lenovo Windows XP notebooks, and Dell Windows 7 notebooks are all PCs. Indeed, there are differences between Windows and Mac machines, but with the help of tools, we can do the same work and personal tasks on different computers. In other words, it can be used for personal computing.

Differences between current tablet PCs and traditional PCs There are currently significant differences between tablet PCs and PCs. First of all, tablets use touch screens, which are different from the combination of keyboards, mice, and touchpads used by traditional PCs. The small size and light weight of the tablet computer are not enough to prolong the battery life. With a different operating system, it is impossible to run a large number of PC applications. At a minimum, the Apple iPad lacks a large number of ports and cannot connect to external monitors, digital cameras, wireless network software dogs, backup systems, finger memory, or heating.

Followed by the use of tablet PCs is different from the traditional PC. Tablets and traditional PCs have a lot of overlapping tasks - such as surfing the Internet, sending and receiving e-mail, social networking and casual games, but there are also differences between the two. Softbank CEO Masayoshi Son uses iPad to replace his PC, but most people will not follow Sun Masaru.

It is very difficult or even impossible for many daily tasks to be completed on a tablet computer. Microsoft Office is missing on tablet computers. It is difficult to input via the virtual keyboard, and file storage and conversion are not easy.

On the other hand, some of the work that can be done by the tablet PC can't be done through traditional PCs: games, drawing applications, and other interactive software are taking on new directions, supporting large touch screens and accelerometers.

In addition, the tablet can also be used as a book reader, which is more convenient than a notebook. The tablet battery has a long battery life and does not need to be powered on at all times. The instant boot function saves a lot of trouble for people to watch the work.

All these new features of tablet PCs have prompted market research firm Gartner to agree with the "post-PC era" concept. Gartner research director George Shiffler said last week: “We expect that as people’s enthusiasm for mobile PCs such as iPads and other media tablet PCs increases, it will significantly slow down mobile PC sales for homes. Tablet PCs will replace Part of the PC.” That is, the tablet PC will replace the PC in some areas.

Similarities in the Future Smartphones and tablets are different in nature from PCs and will replace PCs in some areas. In this sense, we should agree to the "post-PC era" concept. But after a few years, the differences between tablet PCs and PCs will gradually disappear.

Take peripheral equipment as an example. Today, users can connect a Bluetooth keyboard to an iPad, and future wireless connections can also connect a large number of other devices. As tablet computers gradually adapt to corporate customers, it is expected that the product will add more ports. Perhaps Intel's Thunderbolt will provide the convenience of "a port to the world" and will be symbiotic with tablet PCs.

Processor capabilities will also be improved. Of course, a very thin design cannot solve the problem of high energy consumption of high-end CPUs and mid-range PCs. However, with the increase in mobile processor capabilities, the processing workload increases.

It is expected that people will bring a tablet computer in the future. When necessary, the keyboard, mouse, and large-screen display are connected to make it a powerful PC.

The current PC will not die, but will retreat to a smaller niche market. Notebooks have steadily captured the mainstream PC market, pushing desktops to tight budgets, gamers, and workstation users. Tablets will also run on laptops like traditional laptops.

Tablet PCs are the successor to PCs. The PC category is very broad, with MITS Altair, TRS-80 Model 4, Osborne 1, Apple II, BBC Micro, Macintosh SE, Gateway 486DX2-40, Power Computing PowerCurve 601/120, IBM ThinkPad, and Asustek. PCs are PCs.

Of course, over time, PCs have undergone some revolutionary changes. Graphical user experience, hard drives, networks, graphics processors, portability, optical drives, the Internet, and Wi-Fi have all changed the face of PCs.

With tablets, we have touchscreen, positional sensitivity, and geolocation capabilities.

In the future, we may also get voice control, a high-speed, universal fiber-optic communications port, biometrics, sending information on smartphones to contact displays, or charging the battery via the sun or whisky. The future of wireless networks will become more common. ,more reliable.

These are the functions that the PC should have.
