    "iPad is not a laptop. lather, rinse, repeat." :)

    Agreed...

    ... but there's a major flaw in that thinking...

    The average computer user is not like most of us on this board. We actually use production software... we grind our machines as much as they can handle it.

    Back to that 'average user'... what do they do? They send email, the browse the web... they view videos and pictures... play games ... not a whole lot more.

    When you look at it from an average consumer's point of view... the ipad is pretty slick, compact and more than suits their needs.

    • the average person is a consumer; no more and no less...ideaist
    • the 'average consumer' does not have photoshop on their computerPonyBoy
    • treating people as simple consumers is patronising .. the option to be more is essential.
      ********
    • average people expect to view the web, they don't care if it is Flash or HTML, they just want to see it, periodformed
