[QUOTE="RavingMac, post: 999271, member: 45350"] I don't have an iPad yet either (but intend to get one when they come out) and honestly don't know enough about the technicalities involved to have an informed opinion (but that doesn't seem to stop most people so why should I be an exception). What I think would be ideal would be a pro version of the iPad (If they build it I will buy one) that is essentially a MB Air without the keyboard and uses a version of the iPhone OS as the front end. I would also like a dedicated App that brought up OSX as a virtual machine or maybe the iPhone OS would run in virtual mode (regardless, I don't honestly know enough about this to say how to do it). Bottomline: the iPad Pro would act just like a regular iPad until I hit the OSX button or dropped it into its dock, at which point I could use a wireless keyboard and have full MacBook functionality. For that matter, you could even offer an external superdrive with a dock connector for the iPad Pro to sit in. [/QUOTE]
