Its interesting that a Kings College, London and Ipsos Mori poll showed that that those attacking the governement and/or not oberserving social-distancing laws were either Labour Party supporters or Remoaners - which is applicable to you?

Your prejudice is showing.

I think this headline would be more accurate if it read

“Coronavirus troubles underscore world’s reliance on China”

I bought the first iPad on release day, followed by the original Air and last year bought the 11” Pro. Over the years everything I loved about the original is still there but it now does so much more, yet, unless you want to know about it, is just about as simple to use as that 2010 incarnation.

At the moment, I’m transferring almost all data from my MacBook Pro to my iPad since iPadOS came out, to leave my Mac to run Xcode and a few other apps only available on my Mac or that work better. Other than those, the benefits of having such a blazingly quick, beautifully small computer with 4G, GPS and a camera that I can slip in a small shoulder bag beats my Mac (for me) in almost every way possible.

I still need my truck. For now.

This is why there are so many thoughtless comments here. Wizard69, how would you feel if I had written this (a variant of what you wrote):

”The problem is simple being straight can be a problem just like being a drunk can be a problem for a company.   It comes down to how much your problem interfere with the companies mission.  Firing somebody for being straight can be perfectly legitimate or a complete farce, it really depends upon context.   It is no different than firing somebody that drinks too much and brings that problem to work.”

See the problem?

i(Pad)OS has a long way to go for any serious work.

....

These are just examples, but in essence i*OS devices remain information consumption devices like TVs, not content creation devices like computers.

Computers? What, something with an external keyboard? Like an iPad can be? Or a mouse? Like an iPad can be with iPadOS? Or some other definition of computer that you have decided upon that excludes the iPad?

Try telling Federico Viticci you can't do 'serious work' - try this for starters https://www.macstories.net/stories/initial-thoughts-on-ipados-a-new-path-forward/

He's got plenty of articles on MacStories explaining just how he does the things that you say he can't do.
