Is is all a matter of volume. M$ is pounding my computer with a constant

in a day is often larger than I wish to count. These are security updates, not

Again, you view security updates from Apple as 'features'. Nice for you.

I could perhaps see Apple using iOS as an instant on option to check email
etc and then OS X for full duty on laptops.

I think it is highly likely. It is my personal belief, bolstered by
recent Apple Corp. movement, that Apple is going in the direction of
regarding computers, for marketing

Actually, what iOS could do is sweep the business market. A locked down system
is just what most IT managers want. A much larger iPad with a wireless keyboard
may be the business computer of the future.
After getting used to using an iPad it is somewhat frustrating to use an old

Not so locked down, with iOS 4, Apple released over 60 security updates,
most to the web browser, many of which allowed remote execution of code...as

That would be a great idea. I've read about fast boot computers
that would launch a minimal version of Linux for basic use while
WIndows continues to launch in the background. I don't know if
anyone ever got past the concept phase into a commercial product
though.

I do not agree. There are of course those Apple-hating IT types who want to
maintain their bloated staffs. But the Apple advantage will be so obvious that
normally silent business managers will start to question the bad judgement of

Not likely, though it may become available as an option. I can see power-mad IT
types going for it as a way to totally control what is on the machine. IOS does
not need the horsepower of a pro-line machine so I expect to see it on very
different hardware.
