Don't want to open a can of worms, and I realize everyone may have different opinions....but....which would you suggest and why: Ipad or MacBook.
I have the Imac at home. The second item would be for mobile use when in other parts of the home or for use in my position at board meetings as president of one of the local German Clubs, or when doing work related to that position while at the cottage.
My thoughts are:
- the MacBook offers it's own "protection" by the fact that it closes/the Ipad should probably get some sort of protective case.
- the MacBook obviously provides a real keyboard vs either the on screen Ipad keyboard or an added keyboard.
- the MacBook probably has a CD drive that the Ipad does not.
So.....I am looking for input from people with experience with these devices, as I have none. Would also be interested in what specs/model years etc to either stay away from or specs you would strongly suggest.
Thanks everyone.
