andreyf's comment got the gist of it. I think personal computing should exclude things most people may only do for work like programming, writing reports or filling out forms even if those kinds of things were often the "killer apps" for personal computers when they first appeared 25+ years ago.
These days personal computing is more about the seamless integration of processing with personal and social activities which is why companies like Apple, Facebook, YouTube, LinkedIn, etc are doing well.
the seamless integration
Seamless hardly! I have to update my status on facebook and twitter separately, upload my photos to picasaweb and facebook separately, check my e-mail, my facebook mail, my news.YC threads, my reddit threads (or mail, whatever they call it).
Yuk!
