iPad Pro Diary: The iOS ecosystem is much deeper than I knew | Cult of Mac As I say in the video, a keyboard is essential to making the iPad a computer replacement. But I’m also discovering the joys of doing things with multitouch instead of a trackpad and keyboard. I’m discovering how rich and powerful it all is. It’s a better way to work — easy, intuitive and fun.

Once you add the keyboard, it's not really an iPad anymore, is it? It's an iMac running iOS on ARM. Without a stand or a mouse.

So, I will fix this code to use the non-deprecated AVFoundation framework for 4.5. The question for us to find out, is if this fix will go back to 4.3.2 (as it is not a trivial change), or if we'd rather chose a faster fix by temporarily disabling webcam support in OS X standalones to fix this. Does anyone critically need web cam support in OS X standalone?

I'm not sure you can even call OS X an operating system. I have 16-bit, pre-protected mode Win16 code written in 1989 that, as of 2012 was still running on Windows XP and Vista. Hadn't tried it on Windows 7 or 8, but as long as WOW (Windows-on-Windows) is working, does a fine job of illustrating why Windows rules the desktop.

I guess the Mac is going the way of the Watch. Meaning it's jewelry, not a computer.
