NVIDIA CEO Says that Good Tablets are Better than Cheap PCs

[BenLand150]

I can agree with that. Bleacher Report, a website I use just as much as tech websites but for my sporting needs, typing in the comment section is absolutely atrocious The lag is horrible. But everything else I've tried works smooth, just like it would on my computer. The only thing I can say computer browsing truly one-ups it in is the fact that it has a mouse for clicking small urls.

Where do you see tablets are weakest in terms of productivity? Is it the lack of a keyboard, lack of reasonably powerful word processing software, the screen size, interaction model (touch vs mouse), or something else?

All of the above except perhaps screen size if you have a 10" tablet. Plus lack of a real spreadsheet and photo editing software for me. The Surface RT is getting closer, but at a price with keyboard that gets me a much better small notebook. The Surface Pro will probably equal a notebook, but at an estimated price of $900 will not equal a similarly powered notebook.

i wouldn't expect anything else from nvidia ceo. cheap pcs don't come with nvidia components while tablets do. simple business promotion.

I disagree a pc regardless of how cheap it is to the normal user will be better than a tablet. All normal people just want to surf the Web and watch netflix.
