It's been Holy Week here in my beloved country, The Philippines, last week. The post I was planning to do just couldn't grab space in my vacation mode life. Nevertheless, I hope to continue to write on the Tabs dominance over the PC - so it seems.

I said in my previous post that the Tabs were so convenient to use, and the Internet's vast information so easily accessed with a mobile, light, and reliable computer.

Wait?! Did I say computer... so is the Tab a computer? Defined by utility, is a machine that allows processing of data into useful information. Does the Tab really provide so? ... Not at all. I couldn't even do a simple 20 pager powerpoint with animation and really save all my work into it. Yes it may be done, but for my kind of work in the bank, it's just not efficient.

If the Tab has this weakness, though functioning well for some in this aspect; my option is to buy a computer for my processing and save my Tab for the research and information available in the Internet. It is queer indeed, to have a laptap on the table, a Tab on my hand, and a cup of coffee in a nook at my favorite coffee shop. I dont't like to be branded to be a Geek.

Wouldn't it be better to just have one piece of computer and Tab in one? Is there one which shall suit my desire, providing me with good computing power and convenience? I know there is. THE ULTRAPORTABLES!

If the Ultraportables are computers and internet capable bundled into mobile, light, and reliable that spells CONVENIENCE, I can have a good satisfaction experience. So if the Tabs were really ahead today in unit sales than the PC, and the PC evolving into speedy computing, to crisp displays and abundant storage capabilities, then size and light as a Key Feature for Success... then the ultraportable may have the better of both. If the PC manufacturer price these miniature mammoths just a little bit higher than a Tab, and a great discount compared to a PC, then I have in a way hit a bargain, isn't it?

So If I find a good ultraportable that is mobile - meaning 8 inches lengthwise and 5 inches in height display and its lighter than 0.80 kilograms (and I believe this is the only perceived product differenece the Tabs have over the PC) can I still say its a Tab?
