Tablet computers. My thoughts on the first iPad were that it does everything a laptop, an iPod, and a Kindle all do, but worse. Next thing I knew, they were everywhere. I think traditional laptops are making something of a comeback, though.
My wife has an iPad and after using it for a bit, yeah I get it.
Tablets are great for anything that doesn't involve typing
I used my Surface Pro all through college, and that thing is amazing. I took all my notes with the pen in OneNote, but it also has has a full desktop OS, so you're not missing any functionality. Mine is even powerful enough to run some basic CAD modelling, which was a treat for when I didn't want to have to deal with finding an open computer lab
if you haven't tried it, the new pens are like three tines as good!
I'm not sure I can justify a new surface pen since I graduated and got a job that doesn't allow PEDs onsite, but given how good my pen is, the new ones must be great.
Also, when browsing the Microsoft store just now to look at the pen specs, I was shocked to see a bunch of components listed for the Surface Pro 9. Did Microsoft embrace right to repair for that model.
