Apple should take care of future Windows PCs

The beginning of Windows 8 has not been good, and in fact did not even meet all the expectations of Microsoft. To make matters worse, the Apple iPad is virtually cannibalizing PCs and laptops, especially because most buyers are only interested in surfing the Internet and update your Facebook status. If you count tablets as PCs, Apple becomes the No.1 provider of PCs in the world, surpassing even big companies like HP and Lenovo, among others.

Even so, and seeing how the numbers are, it is obvious that the PCs are far from dead, and probably will not for the next 20 or 30 years. In fact, you may soon recover all his honor, as a Citibank analyst suggested that Apple should take care of future computers with Windows 8, which will bring innovation and new technology to industry.

Remember also that Intel wants ultrabooks future touch Haswell use their processors can be purchased from $ 600.

Do you think Apple should really give importance to this fact or simply should continue as it has done so far? Are the PCs and laptops a real threat to the company on the block?
