    Disclaimer - I'm a spoiled executive who has had the chance to play with all the shiny new gadgets be they Windows, Apple or Google.  I am also "old school" and I prefer to take my notes in a written fashion.  I strayed away from Apple for the larger format & stylus of the Galaxy Note series. I absolutely loved the Galaxy Note 12.2. For all of my executive years, I have struggle with the a simply question - do I need a full OS anymore (aka Windows or MacOS).  Since the iPad Pro 12 came out, I have pretty much stopped using anything other than my iMac 5k.  I have a Surface Book and I have a 15" maxed out 2015 MacBook Pro.  But the iPad Pro 12.9 is the only device I really use when I'm outside of my office any more.  Great screen size (reminds me of a legal pad), light weight, slender form factor, great battery life, built in LTE, I keep a magic keyboard hidden in the briefcase is I have to pound out a longer email or actually work on a document or presentation, and last but not least the pencil.

    I just don't need anything more that what the iPad Pro is able to do. 100% satisfied with the product and looking forward to the refresh hopefully this month. 
    I agree if you have a dedicated desktop, but for me I went with the Macbook (12 inch) because it can run a full OS and felt less bulky/lighter to carry around than the iPad Pro 12.9 with the type cover.  If the 12.9 iPad could run full OS a la the Surface Pro, I would go back in a heartbeat, but I sold my iPad Pro 12.9 and just went with the Macbook.
