TEXTO:
Tablets have been steadily catching up on PCs in
recent years as the more fashionable way to get work
done, and according to one analyst they’re perhaps even
about to overtake the PC in sales. Due to falling sales of
5 PCs and the continuing popularity of tablets, analyst
Sameer Singh believes we’re going to see tablets

that most PC owners are happy with their current
desktops or laptops, but want to supplement it with a
tablet.

popular upgrade options, and PCs are still going to remain
