1、雙語:平板電腦會消亡嗎該何去何從市場研究公司IDC的最新數(shù)據(jù)顯示,問世僅僅5年的平板電腦似乎遭遇了瓶頸,購買平板電腦的人越來越少。在筆記本市場陷入低迷,智能手機(jī)市場迅猛增長的大背景下,被夾在中間的平板電腦地位尷尬,盡管它還有生存空間,但這個空間正在持續(xù)萎縮。It?was?just?over?five?years?ago?that?we?were?waiting?with?batedbreath?for?Apple’s?tablet?computer.?The?company?delivered,dubbed?its?new?c

6、er.)然而事實(shí)上,我對此一直持懷疑態(tài)度。沒錯,平板看起來很棒,十分輕薄,很適合躺著使用。不過我使用臺式機(jī)的許多方式都不適用于平板電腦。它們很適合會議,但不太適合坐在桌邊使用。當(dāng)我需要寫一份報(bào)告或設(shè)計(jì)一個頁面時,我需要也許顯得有些過時的鼠標(biāo)帶來的精準(zhǔn)操控。而最困難的一點(diǎn)在于,我像很多人一樣,已經(jīng)有了一臺筆記本電腦。再買個平板電腦看起來更像是“錦上添花”,而不是“雪中送炭”。(除非你是UPS的快遞員。)New?figures?from?IDC,?the?market?research?firm,?suggest?that?we’
