- tluyben2 7y agoYes :) Isn't modern computing excellent? One quite significant difference though; portability. Also not quite $1000s; $800 for the ipad (and a $400 one would do fine) and $20/mo for the mac. Beats a mbp most of the time in a modern 4g/wifi environment. Ofcourse there are many caveats; embedded programming, game programming, mobile app testing etc. But I still do about 60-70% (depending) on it; it's great for building / testing / deploying API's and some months that's all I do.
- 0xakhil 7y agoI think embedded programming would be possible once web browsers start supporting USB devices.
