I think DELL has a chance to regain market shares (against tablet) with Ultrabooks. Ultrabooks could gain significant popularity when Windows 8 (which supports touch screens) comes out and turns out to work well and get's strong adoption.

If they can bring out Ultrabooks for let's say 700$ that combine touch screen support for simple task and the standard keyboard input for real work, i can see that tablet's may get squeezed, at least at the high end.

My suspicion is that Windows 8 will fall flat in terms of touchscreen support but again success is not really build in DELL's price, so i think we have some potential for upside towards the end of 2012/early 2013 from the Windows 8 launch.
