You get it.
This isn't the same as 1984 for one simple reason: Mac apps weren't built in an SDK on Apple IIs. They were built on Macs.
The MacBook and iMac will simply enter the space currently occupied by the Mac Pro.
- rythie 16y agoPeople are already talking about using the iPad itself to do development, it does after all support a VGA out and bluetooth keyboard already. It would enable a whole new generation of developers on the platform who can't afford a Mac mini in addition to the iPad.
- tomjen3 16y agoIt would be pretty cool, as it would make iPad development easier but that would mean Apple would have to give up its tight grip on the device, which I very much doubt will ever happen.
- rythie 16y agoWell Google will surely do it first. I've already edited code using my iPod touch, via a SSH client - it was slow because of the small screen and on screen keyboard, but I had to fix an error on the live site and had no computer to hand. I think you could easily code a whole site with VGA out and keyboard on a iPhone 4. Which could then be used from the device itself.
- gthank 16y agoActually, Mac development required a Lisa for quite some time.
