Any kid whose parents are hackers, writers, journalists, scientists, accountants or any other profession that actually has to type stuff on their keyboards will still have real computers in their homes in addition to tablets.

For that matter, kids might still find machines with big displays and keyboards useful, since writing an essay or term paper on an iPad probably wouldn't be a very pleasant experience. (Or do kids not get writing assignments in school anymore?)
