I can run the latest linux distribution on an almost 10 years old computer, and I assure you that the distro maker didn't stand still to cater for me. It's obviously slower than a new computer but it's quite useable, I just turn off the most demanding desktop effects and don't use it for 3d animation. Heck, I could even use lxde instead of kde4 if I really cared about its slowness. If I buy, say, a netbook, I'll lose the pocketability of the tablet (and that's quite an important factor), but I know that 10 years from now I'll probably be able to use it (if it lasts, which I doubt, since most electronics nowadays are made to use and throw away in a matter of months, yes, including the tablets) with the latest and greatest.
