A few years ago I read an obituary for Bob Hope that was picked up by my local paper. Hope had become one of my favorite celebrities over the years and I was saddened by his passing. The only problem was he hadn't actually died.


I had a similar experience recently as I read a number of articles and columns about the death of the Tablet PC that pointed to a presentation by a Microsoft executive as a clear indicator of the platform's demise. These articles pointed out that while the vertical products have been successful, the horizontal offerings have not done well, and they focused on the failure of these horizontal, clamshell designs as the cause for Microsoft's action.


Enough with the death stuff. That isn't what was said and others just started making things up. Gesh. Very annoying.

It's the name .. it's the name .. it's the name... gasping for air.

Reports of Tablet PC's Death Have Been Greatly Exaggerated
