The Computer Isn’t Dead!

People often ask if they *should* be using a tablet or smartphone or something more “modern”than a computer to get their work done. It’s true that tablets and smartphones have taken on a good number of the roles that only computers could fulfill just a few years ago. We have held, though, and our clients’ experience bears out, that these devices aren’t as productive for much of what business users use computers for and a good old-fashioned computer, keyboard and mouse.

OK, a good old touchscreen Windows 8 computer with a wireless keyboard and mouse. Not that old fashioned, I guess!

Here are a couple of articles that address this topic:
