That much Microsoft got right (eventually). The current crop of Windows tablets run plain old Windows Desktop, and you can use the wealth of applications that have been available for a long, long time. It is the convenience of a tablet form-factor wrapped around the same laptops that have been serving people so well for so long.
An iPad Pro running iOS will require people to evolve in order to be as productive as they were with a MacBook. At best. |
The key to the Corporate environment is in-house client Apps.
Those run on Windows.
On Oracle.
On SQL.
Any of those run on iOS?
It is a bigger iPad.
It might be faster than the small iPads.
It might even be useful for some individuals in business.
But corporate IT? Those people take years to switch Windows versions!
Switching to a new OS?
Really?
I'm not holding my breath.
