I'm amazed the two haven't converged yet. I've no doubt apple have lurking in their labs a "double iPad" with a "screen" and a second screen where the keyboard now lives, running a version of iOS-like MacOS. Would love that device and think it'll emerge eventually.
- satvikpendem 3y agoI don't think they'll converge, I see Apple eventually using its Vision product line to supplant traditional rectangular slab based devices.
- gizajob 3y agoYeah does seem like it’ll go that way. Not sure I want to spend the day “goggled in” (as Neal Stephenson would say) - I may already be an old timer and want to use external devices (my first computer had 48kb of memory). But no doubt I’ll be engoggled at some point in the not too distant future. Plus for the time being, there doesn’t seem to be a way of plugging in external peripherals to the Vision, so we’re stuck with the same problem of not being able to reasonably use pro audio interfaces and suchlike, same as the iPad.
- bdcravens 3y agoWhy would they willingly create a device where people can buy one instead of two?
- gizajob 3y agoI think there’s probably benefits to be had in terms of interface without having a fixed typing keyboard. Logic and Final Cut for example, could be hugely improved by this.
