Amazing. You agree that it is my opinion, yet you say it is wrong. My opinion cannot be right or wrong, it is just my opinion. This is a discussion group, everyone who posts has an opinion. If others agree or disagree makes little difference, they are still opinions, valid to the person expressing them. I would be astounded if everyone agreed with me, I have never expected that, in fact I would be very worried if that happened. I am at all times quite prepared to explain or amplify as to why I hold a particular opinion, but I am certainly not about to change it. Not unless someone introduces some previously unknown (to me) fact into the discussion.
I have not once said that it was wrong for anyone to have or use a pad, I just point out that is is unrealistic to expect them to replace computers. I argue against what is supposedly a trend, not against personal preference.
I ride a mountain bike and enjoy doing so. Some people ride "Fixies", a rigid framed basic bike with no gears. I don't like them, they are impractical, but I do not disparage those who enthusiastically embrace them. If someone suggested that they would be better than a mountain bike on mountain trails I would disagree and give my reasons. No different here.
Now, as you are so keen to tell me that I am wrong about pretty well anything I post - fill your boots. Your opinion is hardly going to affect me - is it?
Pads will probably evolve into real computers, possibly with Laser keyboards and the ability to add peripheral devices. Until then, for real work or games - they remain a compromise. My opinion - the fact that you disagree doesn't concern me.
