I’ve just published “The iPad Works” - some thoughts on recent iPad news and how I view the iPad.

@coperob Great article. A lot of tech reviewers and pundits get caught up in traditional tropes of how people use compute devices.

As an IT pro working mostly in the Microsoft ecosystem I could feasibly use an iPad for almost everything. I have cloud shell, browser tools, Windows 365, etc… to do my Microsoft workloads.

I’ve even considered getting a 2021 11” iPad Pro & Magic Keyboard to see how far I can go.

Modern computing is flexible. Not rigid.

@rlounsbury Thanks. You’re right that modern computing is flexible. That’s a great way to think about it.

@coperob I appreciate that I can have a tablet with PC processing power that I can use as a tablet or slap it into a magnetic keyboard mount and get a more traditional experience.
