  1. ... to protect a barely low order laptop replacement. I can easily see why Apple will never cannibalize iPad sales by making touch screen Airs or the like, which will do everything an iPad does WITH file services, real multi-tasking, sturdy construction, no extra $$$$ keyboard, and real network behavior.

  2. I'm watching on my iPad Mini which doubles as my drone screen, without costing a laptop $$$$ to replace, but STILL not do what a laptop does. I'll pay for a touch screen Apple laptop, but never for a boutique iPad; all the disadvantages of a phone operating system with all the disadvantages of a non-desktop you have to buy a keyboard for, too.

  3. Really appreciate this! I was not going to buy the first time around, after donating an iPad Pro 10.5" in an emergency, and I'm sure not buying this time with such a grab bag of having to change my work style AND so little to show for it. I really want an Apple laptop with touch screen, and I'd never have to buy another brand, even with Windows desktops being the standard here, for now.

  4. Yeah, the money grubbing engineer know what is "best", for a given value of "best". So, what is the difference in the two values of "best"? Profit margin? Keeping Samsung chip fabs running and bailing out under-performing divisions? It certainly isn't involved with "not cheating the consumer" with a bait-and-switch. Engineers know what they're told to do by the suits who OWN them. They are followers, not leaders, and pretending 'they know best' is as dishonest as Samsung management pulling this scam with their phones.
