Saying that the PC loses to the web is like saying that cars lose to the new highway.

Sure, maybe everyone is replacing their car with a motorcycle, but then the car is losing to the motorcycle, not the highway.

It actually makes sense.

The PC as a platform for running your applications and holding your data is on its way out, being replaced by the web. The PC, the box you run your browser on, will remain, but the applications you run will only see the browser on one side and their Unix-like OS on the other.
