You have to give Steve Jobs his due. As he says, the desktop is dead..... portable is where the future lies.

Well my G3 PowerBook is a bit of an anchor right now. Sitting in the old man rocking chair in the front room. - something I could do even with the laptop - tapping on the iPad keyboard is an experience. Its like living in the future. It does most everything you might need a cconsumer computer for. Some back and forth stuff administering subscriptions to MUGLO for instance are still best done on the laptop with quick keyboard shortcuts for cut and paste and multiple Safari tabs. No version of iWeb to administer the site...Still even the iPod Touch has uses for post it notes kind of things, quick lists, music, surreptitious recording. I feel a real geek in the Wortley Village Value Mart checking a grocery list on my iPad :-) but the iPod Touch nobody notices.Sent from my iPad On 2010-06-23, at 2:53 PM, Wayne Dobson <pwdobson@xxxxxxxxxx> wrote:This might be the reason to get an iPad and ditch the laptop.--- Manage your account options at //www.freelists.org/list/muglo
