Anyone bookmaking? My money's on $15 million (linear + mirror flip at the end).
The key thing here is that phone-like devices replacing desktops is inevitable. It's straightforward historically-supported Christensen + Moore. Phones are already powerful enough for almost all desktop purposes, just connect keyboard/mouse/monitor.
The question is, who will "lead" this revolution? Maybe Canonical.
You forget about the cloud thing. Your phone can be used as an authenticator (partly not all) and if your data is in the cloud then whatever is sitting there will work just fine. What is it about the hardware you are carrying that requires it to be used as the desktop computer?

Why is it inevitable? You sure haven't done any programming, rendering, gaming, etc, have you?
