It doesn’t have to have software that runs in both. All it needs is a toggle to switch between ipad os mode, and mac os mode. That’s literally all it needs. In ipad mode it’s just ipad os. In mac mode its just mac os. Mac mode would require a hardware keyboard and pointer device, not touch screen.
It would be super useful.
When you want to draw something you go to tablet mode and use the pencil. - When the drawing you made needs some editing that iPad software can’t do then you switch to mac os mode and finalize the drawing.
Do some programming in mac mode because programming on ipad is extremely limited. - Then when you’re done coding you switch to tablet mode and relax with some touch based jigsaw puzzle games.
When you have to use the windows-only programs that work mandates you have to use then you go to mac mode with attached keyboard and run it through parallels. - Then that evening you switch to tablet mode and chill in bed reading a comic book.
Etc etc etc.
All the things that are better done on a mac, and all the things that are better done on an iPad, they all have no reason for existing on separate hardware
I just learned about this game from this post, as an old head i just have to say whaaaaaaaat!!!
I’m on a very old OS version so i don’t know what happened to it, but you can add any shortcut you want to any command you can find in the menu bar, for any app. Go to system preferences and in (iirc) accessibility somewhere in there is a place where you can add your own customized key commands.
OMG my brain hates it! I mean objectively i know it sounds great, but it’s so wrong from what my brain expects that it makes me bleah!
From a financial standpoint i would never bet against them, but personally i haven’t liked the direction they’ve gone since Jobs died. But I’m obviously in the minority, because they’ve sold gabillions under Cook, including brand new product categories like the watch, airpods, and apple music. IMO none of those are particularly special, but whether it’s Apple’s marketing machine or something i dunno, but the fact is those are all new product categories and they’ve all sold very well.
