My Mac book pro will be 7 years old this year and while I still
use it now and then. I find myself using my iPhone and iPad more these days.
Granted back then, I was in college and had to use a computer for typing
purposes. Essays, evaluations course work etc. So a computer was required for
those long typing periods.
I think, whatever situation one is in, you as the user needs to decide for
yourself what kit your willing to learn and depending on your skills with
technology, and platform you want to work with.
At the end of the day, these are tools and one needs to find the right tool or
tools to fit work, or play. If that makes sense.
Regards
Daniel

For me personally i would mostly use it for at home or on the go. Reading
books, podcasts, the news, watching tv looking stuff up on the internet,
whatsapp. Using my banking app and doing some basic text editing and mail.
I agree that some websites can be problematic on ios though so thats something
htat I will have to look into. Wikipedia, which i use most frequently works
fine though.
