- epochwolf 17y agoIt's a Macbook turned into a Tablet PC. It would be rather funky if it didn't run OSX.
- almost 17y agoYes, I know that. I just think it's odd that the poster was hoping that the iPad would be something that already has existed for a while (a standard laptop without a keyboard).
- elblanco 17y agoWhy would it be odd for Apple to add a sensible product to a hole in its product lineup? It seems to me that very few people are actually impressed or interested in the iPad, particularly since expectations, desire and hype was for what this basically is...not for an overinflated iPod touch.
- almost 17y agoBut it already exists, see the link. Or you could do a hackintosh with a windows tablet. But then all you have is a laptop without a keyboard and why would you want that? I guess I wasn't paying much attention but what I heard pre-launch was that it was going to basically be a giant iPod Touch. Which seems like quite a good idea to me. Not quite a cure for cancer but what do you expect?
