Tablet computers are becoming ever more popular. For many people, they are now the first choice for computing.
Industry analysts are predicting that tablet computers will outsell both laptops and desktops combined in 2014 - making up over 50% of total computer sales.
There are a variety of different reasons behind the popularity of tablet computers. They are, depending to some extent upon the make and model which you choose, generally cheaper than either laptops or desktops. However, the latest tablets have quad-core processors which means that you effectively have desktop power in a device that will fit in your briefcase or even in your purse.
One of the biggest factors in the appeal of tablet computers is the fact that they are so user friendly. The intuitive touch screen interface means that many people who wouldn't normally enjoy using a computer with a QWERTY keyboard, be it laptop or desktop, will quite happily get to grips (quite literally) with a tablet computer.
It means that the market for tablet computers is quite a bit larger than that for "standard" computers. Combined with the other appealing aspects of tablets, that's enough to ensure their popularity.
