Are we in a post-pc era?

-

The advent of smart and ultra-portable devices is eating away at the legacy PC’s market share and providing a compelling solution to the end user. However, these devices are not meant for power usage, irrespecti­ve of the price tag and the number of cores. For light work, these devices fit the bill—but people harping about the ‘post-PC era’ are exaggerati­ng. These devices still reTuire a full-blown PC to work perfectly (syncs, updates, etc) and don't have the amenities to enable high-end work. Thus, as of now, we're still very much in the PC era.
