What is the attraction with the iMac at this point? Why not get the Mac Mini, LG quality 27-32" monitor, and the keyboard/mouse and go to town?

How many times is he going to change his prediction?

Well, either:

1. Until he gets it right, or
2. Until Apple stops using his "predictions" to ferret out leakers.

Makes all the sense in the world...IF...you are working on a folding iPhone...

It is NOT almost enough - this quote from the article says it all:

"On a large 32-inch display, there is room for more apps to be running, especially things like lists of notes or a running Twitter feed. On the new iPad Pro, we know it's capable since it's running the same M2 processor found in the MacBook Air."

Apple, quit screwing around and just enable MacOS when connected to an external monitor, keyboard, and mouse. Your crapped and gimped up iPadOS is almost acceptable on the small screen, but when it comes to using the iPad Pro as a real laptop, it sucks wind.

Why doesn't the article address the real elephant in the room - operating systems? Hands down Windows is a better productivity environment and iPadOS 16.2 (beta) is a better tablet environment. No amount of Stage Manager sugar coating is going to make the iPad a daily driver for productivity purposes. Now if Apple would dual boot MacOS and iPadOS 16.x on a 12.9" iPad Pro, game, set, match to Apple.
