IPad is not a tablet says ex Apple executive

• jey 17y ago
  A former Apple exec who now sells MacBook-to-tablet conversion kits? Could they have picked a more biased source?
  • Herring 17y ago
    It's quite possible to be biased and correct at the same time.
    • jey 17y ago
      Sure, there's a non-zero probability. What are you getting at?
  • epochwolf 17y ago
    Yes, Microsoft.

    A tablet is not just a laptop with an on-screen keyboard - that's the mistake MS made.

  Ex Apple executive: "My definition of what a 'tablet' is doesn't match Apple's." Boring. Arguing about definitions is stupid, childish and meaningless. There is an interesting analysis in there but it's obscured by all that futile babble about what constitutes a proper tablet and what not.

  With the huge investment Apple is making in touch these days, this guy's investors were right to worry about Apple. No matter what happens to the iPad, you can bet the laptop line and OS X are going to continue to support more and more tablet-style features. He better make his money while he can.
