There will be some merging to be sure. But mobile systems are on the upswing, even Apple seems to be neglecting the laptop/desktop space. Mobile devices will keep improving.
Mobile devices (smartphones mostly) are increasing ... but tablets sales continue to decline. I don't see laptops (or desktops) giving way to Chromebooks. I know I would never replace my laptop or desktop with a Chromebook, I don't like the idea of being "dead in the water" if the Internet goes down. And I need a usable keyboard.
