Eventually the platform will develop and mature, and perhaps in five years time or so, it might be powerful enough to replace a traditional computer for most people.
The frustrating thing is that it is powerful enough to be a computer for most people, but for non-technical reasons, Apple insists on keeping it Not A Computer.
