No the iPad was not used as a maxi-pad or weapon. These uses will have to wait for another day.

I had a crippled PC due to antispyware soft, and the way I solved the problem was to use an iPad to research the solution:

The iPad served as an internet reader, while I was doing some emergency registry editing on the PC, in safe mode. Thank goodness for the walled garden approach of the iPad/iPhone OS. Sure beats Windows X-Post facto.

Btw, and this is even more off-topic, use the netstat -a -b command in your MS Windows Command Prompt application to see who's really spying on you, or monitoring activity on your computer! Omigod, Apple is using 7 TCP/IP or UDP ports.
