with this downgrade is it still be able to run the ipad calculator app? Does anyone know? Because in software side of Ipad IOS, that is the biggest innovation in years.
- behnamoh 2y agothe new calculator app is only available on the M4 version because of hardware limits. /s
- kstrauser 2y agoA couple years ago Apple added the concept of swap to the new iPad Pro version of the day. M1 finally had the power to support it. I must’ve hallucinated running swap on my Amiga way back when.
- wtallis 2y agoEven the original iPhone would've had plenty of power/performance to smoothly handle swapping for Amiga applications. Your Amiga would certainly not have had the power to handle swapping for iPad applications. You cannot simply ignore the role that workload differences have here, when the whole point was to offer an acceptable user experience.
- kstrauser 2y agoI can and shall. Any recent modern iPad Pro had plenty of ability to implement swap. I won’t believe that something in the M1 somehow made that possible for the first time ever in that device, especially when Macs with lesser capable CPUs have had swap for decades.
- orf 2y agoLots of possible reasons: performance, ecosystem bugs, limitations with the A-series of processors, issues with the disk itself, security, dealing with disk encryption, who knows. Believe what you want, but blanket statements like that are beyond silly.
- KerrAvon 2y agoDid Amiga use flash memory with a limited number of write cycles for storage?
- kstrauser 2y agoNo, but my contemporary-to-the-M1-iPad MacBook Pro did.

- emptiestplace 2y agoI use it all the time, it's great - I just wish ssh-agent worked on it.
- walterbell 2y agoHopefully the Apple gods will bestow VMs upon iPad Pro at WWDC.
- m463 2y agowith the export restrictions, only the abacus app will work in global markets.
- tintedfireglass 2y agoI think the regular calculator would work fine. Not sure about the scientific calculations tho.... Should work properly I guess?
