@monkbent What’s the Mac’s benefit? Display size? CPU/GPU power? Input method of mouse + keyboard? OS X abilities? USB/Thunderbolt ports?

@marcedwards all of the above :) -
@monkbent I’d argue ports and CPU/GPU don’t or won’t matter, and any OS feature can be moved from OS X to iOS. -
@marcedwards when I think of os I think of things like multiple windows and other user facing “features” that drive complexity/efficiency

@monkbent I’d suggest the line separating Mac/iPad use cases is moved by a large enough market sustaining touch optimized software/workflows -
@duncanwilcox the line is dashed because it’s fluid. But there is a cost to enabling such workflows

@monkbent I keep looking at this and thinking it’d be amazing for design, dev, video, music and other pro tasks. https://i.imgur.com/W99VCaa.jpg -
@marcedwards sure, even more specialized.

@monkbent For me, the main benefits are display size + keyboard. I think multitouch is better than mouse and a new OS could replace OS X.Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo

@monkbent Just to show what we have known for a while. Most consumers needs for computing are not that complex or in depth... Perhaps yet? - 1 more reply

@monkbent The question is: Would the Mac be as good as a new pro + enthusiast large multitouch device with a more modern OS? I’d say no.Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo

@monkbent also this point seems to me the core reason why OS X and iOS won’t merge. -
@BenBajarin@monkbent how overrated is convergence in anycase? Sounds like Microsoft playbook circa 2006.
