    If you spread your cream cheese on a bagel with an ax, you probably think Apple Pencil is a 'stylus' the way Jobs framed it five years ago.

        @counternotions @asymco Terribly weak argument. "You have to get them, put them away, you lose them. Yuck." This doesn't apply 2 Pencil how?

        @senkwe @counternotions The Pencil is an accessory. A stylus is an input method.

      @counternotions Exactly. Jobs was referring to a stylus as a core aspect of operating the device, not an instrument to draw and write.

      @counternotions Using Windows 8.1 was an ax, with Windows 10 it’s “improved” to a machete.
