The personal computer will no longer be the primary way that people interact and do business.
The Post-PC era is a market trend involving a decline in the sales of personal computers in favor of post-PC devices; which include mobile devices such as smartphones and tablet computers.
It means beyond the personal computer like smart phone, tablet for using internet/web
The post PC world is where your information is not limited to one device (PC), it is the era of the cloud and the internet of things where you can access your information over various devices and connectivity options.
Post- PC is to mean that we are doing away with desktops. The next generation workforce would be on mobiles, tablets and wearable technologies.
Desktops were a replacement to batch jobs that had to be completed in a server room. Now computing is in our hands, with advanced wireless networking capabilities, virtualization. Hence it is technologically feasible to have a desk less office.
The work we use to get done by a PC earlier is comfortably done by handheld devices like smartphones or tablets or PDAs. It sure did comfort you on mobility but battery life is the major concern for these handheld devices, you still need PCs.
It is time for the Cloud technology to change users way of work.
As we used to work in the 80s with terminals, and then Personal Computers, now the Cloud service is the next generation for the Computer world. The users will no longer need to install softwares and in the near futur no longer a hard drive since every thing will be stored in the cloud.
POST - means after, POST-PC world, literally means after personal computers world.
PCs are getting obsolete.
