I agree with the author, people at my old job would have this setup and I found it odd, I do have an Android tablet but I use it very differently from my laptop, I use it for browsing, watching movies, etc and video skyping, if I ever have an urge to do "real work", I always fire up the laptop, I think some people fell a little to hard for all the marketing of these tablets as they really convinced themselves they no longer need a real laptop, IMO the two complement one another.. after a long day of work, some days I just don't want to touch a regular computer again but if I need to look something up real quick, or just read articles, the tab is great for that, it gives a different user experience which is a nice change.
