They are here already - Win 8 (not RT) is available on Intel or Atom powered 10" tablets from HP and Dell, but they dont have many USB ports and probably will never cater for more than 1 USB.   

If any tablet ever matches a laptop in terms connectivity and quality sound cards etc. it will be a happy co-incidence not because the manufacturer wanted to capture the live music performance market.

And once you connect a qwerty keyboard to a 10" tablet whats the difference between it and a netbook or laptop?
