Hello,

Another way of looking at it is that our behaviour in our choices. Are what 
Apple are responding to in the products that they offer. Many of these messages 
on these lists state that they are sent from an iPhone or such other mobile 
device. We just don’t want to go into our offices and sit at a desk and wait 
for a PC or Mac to boot up. We’ll never go back to being tied to a desktop 
machine like we were just a few years ago. That’s how I understood Tim’s 
comments. The power of the Pro is allowing users to do more than they did at 
their desktops. I think Tim stated that this was customers testimony. Wasn’t it 
a film maker using Pro’s instead of desktop machines.

Why even Microsoft are producing mobile hardware. Unheard of years ago.

Times are a changing folks.
