Mobile computing no longer exists

Anyone who has an interest in the future of computing and mobile should consider the following developments:

PC manufacturers, it is rumored, are collaborating with Google on notebook computers that will run the Android operating system. Yet Android is the ?mobile? OS that powers the majority of the world?s smartphones.

The gatekeeper between mobile and non-mobile computing is now largely psychological. When Schmidt says that Google will let the market decide the when and how of fusing of Google?s mobile and desktop operating systems, he is acknowledging that we all grew up with desktop operating systems, and learning how to interact with touchscreen mobile devices is still relatively fresh in our collective memory. (Not to mention the billions in the rising global middle class who have yet to purchase their first smart device.)

I believe the thesis but don?t find the evidence compelling. From Quartz.
