Here is something on what I was getting at a short while back about how many, maybe most Macintosh computers may resort to running iOS and dumping OS X. This piece takes it further:
When Steve Jobs introduced the iPad he pointed out the obvious—the iPad is targeted between an iPhone and iPod touch, and a MacBook. In other words, Apple wants us to buy an iPhone (or iPod touch), buy a Mac notebook, and buy an iPad. The reality is that iPad sales will cannibalize Macs and iPod touch sales. How do I know this? Experience. The trend is unmistakable. Computer usage by the masses is going mobile. The Mac as we know it—a full featured personal computer—is slowly going away, to be replaced by ever more mobile and increasingly capable devices. http://mac360.com/index.php/mac360/comments/how_apples_ipad_will_cannibalize_macbook_sales/ ************************************************************************* ** List info, subscription management, list rules, archives, privacy ** ** policy, calmness, a member map, and more at http://www.cguys.org/ ** *************************************************************************
