I am not saying that the computer as a table top immediately surplants the magic of what we have today. But if successful, you can see that at some point it could become the norm, and change how pencil and paper RPG's are played.
I don't think the computer can replace the tabletop. The Character Builder has me starting to think the computer might be able to replace the books. What the Builder does is to combine being a reference(I find it outshines the Compendium in this regard) while actually doing what you would use the books to do. See what this game looks like if we get an Adventure/Encounter builder.
