    Very, Very cool.  Apple really needs to make people aware of iPad Pro + iOS 11 features.
    This will eventually lead to the iPad Pro replacing a lot of Macs and MacBooks.
    Go Apple!
    Fixed that for you
    That doesn’t make any sense. Most people who own ipads do not also own Macs, thus its far to say any non-purchased laptop/desktop would be a PC and not a mac. Can you more clearly explain the negative narrative yarn you’re spinning?
    Presumably a 2nd generation PC-advocate/touch-denier. When faced with a viable 3rd gen (touch) PC proposition these 2nd gen PC advocates won't accept what's happening to the market.  PC utilisation & install base switched from GUI to touch (2nd to 3rd gen.) years ago but these guys cling on with comments about "real PCs" as they become increasingly irrelevant.  Here's an update which blows the iPad way past a Wintel PC/pretend tablet in usability and now functionality and they still deny.

    He is literally a Neanderthal.

    Huh?  PC users switched to a touch based UI years ago?   Geez!  I missed it!
    ...  Actually, Apple said that a touch based laptop sucked and declined to make one -- and I agree.  A touch interface has neither the precision nor the convenience of a cursor for the type of work typically done on a laptop.  True, a touch screen is a nice enhancement to a standard laptop -- but not a replacement for the cursor for most tasks that laptop is typically asked to perform.

    Good grief!  This is exactly my point.  PC or "Personal Computer" doesn't  mean GUI-based machines.  These are only 2nd generation PCs.  Now there are many types of PC, iPads being the biggest-selling model.  Most people are using Touch PCs the vast majority don't run Windows.

    And no, most UI interactions don't require the precision of a mouse.

    So, iPads are PC's huh?   And they outsell them too!   
    ...  Really now...
