How long? Hopefully never. The optimist in me wants to believe that people will eventually see through Apple's marketing and see that tables are ridiculous.
However, the pessimist in me realises that most people don't do anything resembling serious work on their computers and rely on advertisers to tell them what to think and what they want. Tablets are useful for people who obsessively check Facebook every three minutes, so maybe they'll overtake real computers quite soon.
