But I think it deserves a response, so here goes nothing...<br /><br />“The reason there is not much to comment on...”<br /><br />This post wasn’t meant to solicit comments. I thought it was an interesting exercise. Like everything on my blog, I put it here so as not to bore uninterested people with it or simply not share at all. This blog provides a nice middle ground where I can share my thoughts and people can read them or ignore them as they choose.<br /><br />“...this blogs inference...”<br /><br />What am I inferring? No, don’t answer that. I don’t really care what you may think I’m inferring. I think I was pretty explicit. The iPad already has many (if not most) of the apps that I used to use daily on my current computer, and that will only increase. I wasn’t intending to infer anything else.<br /><br />“...its ‘purposely unfair’ to compare...”<br /><br />It’s a <i>exercise</i> in response to a specific comment. Yes, the iMac and the iPad are different. (Though there’s no denying that there is overlap.) Fairness doesn’t enter into it. There’s no winner or loser in this comparison. Just curiosity about the outcome.<br /><br />“...if you really cared that much...”<br /><br />About what? Whatever it is, I think the answer is that I do <i>not</i> care. I’ve got no agenda here. It is called “thinking out loud” because that’s what it is.<br /><br />“...scrape up readers...”<br /><br />I do pretty much zero to promote this blog. I only have roughly a score of regular readers. If it were more or less, I really wouldn’t care.Roberthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16733274876782876659noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4370268061829710124.post-41034424207623600122011-01-08T13:27:38.012-06:002011-01-08T13:27:38.012-06:00The reason there is not much to comment on about t...The reason there is not much to comment on about this blogs inference is because "we" meaning Mac lovers and win lovers alike have come to know "Windows haters" and "Mac haters" when we here them. First of all its "purposely unfair" to compare the "Imac" and the "IPad" for the same reason you can't compare a pc running windows XP, Vista, or 7, to a handheld running CE, Android, Google, or palm. For you to write this blog as if you know these devices, and 2<br />as if you really use them on a daily basis I really don’t believe that this is the case and 3 if you really cared that much, instead of repeating the "Mac haters" buzz words post your blog on a site where you can be heard by people who actually use these devices and not on one that try to scrape up readers by using buzz topics. Why Corporations still try, We are just not that dumb anymore.peter blounthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03998599105021536087noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4370268061829710124.post-13317775549490036782011-01-08T13:26:15.801-06:002011-01-08T13:26:15.801-06:00blountsys@hotmail.comblountsys@hotmail.competer blounthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03998599105021536087noreply@blogger.com
