      Currently I have a MacBook Pro and an iPad mini. While I love and prefer the form factor on the mini, I would trade it in a heartbeat if my MacBook and iPad could be one device. Currently I have specific programs that aren’t available on iPad I need for my job and it’s not feasible for me to switch to iPad as my main device. If I could dual boot macOS on my iPad, I would buy the pro model

    The last bit that file management is why people are asking for Mac OS on the iPad and also instead of Apps driven thinking as we do on iPad, it should be files driven on iPad and we could just do with the iPad only setup as well… it is the multitasking (without stage manager or with stage manager I don’t care but without the limits and restrictions of stage manager) and a few more tweaks to make it more files driven than apps driven and nobody would ask for the Mac OS to be on the iPad. Worked for 2.5 years on my iPad and made an iPad only desk setup. I also have the m1 iPad Pro… I bought the Mac mini m2 recently and it blew my mind… I find organisation in clutter of files and apps that I open with one flick on the Magic Trackpad and I am in mission ctrl… however when I am on the iPad the focus driven workflow that it has to offer makes me feel at home as I had done it for 2.5 years. It makes me more productive in the work that I am doing… but I feel restricted coz of the above factors.

    If you are at home, you can use a bluetooth mouse to connect to sidecar in clamshell mode but you have to use the bluetooth mouse or trackpad and bluetooth headphones. Set it to optimise for the iPad's screen. You'll have to go to the desktop first to activate sidecar (mirror iPad screen) and then close the lid, then click the mouse that is connected to the MacBook to wake it. It'll wake to the mac lock screen on your iPad. Every time you want to use sidecar in clamshell mode, you have to do this. The advantage is that it will fill the iPad's 4:3 aspect ratio and optimise for it.

      iPad sales would increase, and perhaps MacBook Pro sales would stay the same, but MacBook Air would crash so hard if they did this. MacBook Air costs more than an iPad Pro, and even with a price hike, or only the upper 1tb being able to have this, a touch MacBook is the endgame for any creative professional. That leaves a MacBook Pro for true heavy work, but an iPad could manage both iPad tasks, and MacBook tasks, leaving the MacBook Air in a small niche market. Even now it is in a position where older MacBooks or the MacBook Pro are better deals.
      In my opinion, if a 2 in 1 was made, it would come either as a MacBook Air killer (iPad Ultra you may name it), or as a new MacBook Air with no iPad related software, simply the touch functionality and maybe Apple Pencil, but at that point you’re sacrificing iPad Pro…either way, one of these has to go because the market already overlaps enough that a new product would just kill them both.

      They want you to buy multiple devices. It makes them more money and makes you more likely to stay in the ecosystem. If the only devices you have are an iPhone and an iPad with MacOS, then that’s not making them that much money and if you ever decide to leave Apple, you only have 2 devices which need changing, which isn’t much. That compared to if you bought an iPhone, iPad, and MacBook. At that point you’ll probably buy AirPods or an Apple Watch or something as well. Now you’re deep into the ecosystem and bought several products.
      Apple doesn’t want the iPad to be too much like a computer. And they don’t want the MacBook to have a touch screen. It means people will buy just one instead of both. Not as good for getting people invested in the ecosystem.

    People never seem to discuss the two elephants in the room - battery life and security model.
    I suspect the battery life by transplanting macOS on iPad would be pretty bad - iPadOS and iOS is super aggressive on pausing/terminating apps, which is not how macOS manages the processes. 13-inch MacBook Air has a significantly bigger battery than the 13-inch iPad Pro, and for a good reason.
    I agree the Files app is in an abysmal state, and 'pro' apps on iPads aren't great, as well as how iPadOS doesn't let you manage long running task, but I suspect the solution isn't as simple as just transplanting macOS.
    There has been attempts to have 2-in-1 OS, like Windows 8. And when it comes to Windows 2-in-1 devices they aren't doing amazing, and previous attempt of Windows+Android 2-in1 was cludgy at best. Desktop and Tablet experience is hard to merge.

      Back when Parallels Access was a thing (before they killed a perfectly good product because they didn't want to develop it any more), I worked through my iPad to a shared Mac all the time, and got real work done. Keyboard worked fine, screen tapping for things I needed to click on. So it's possible and not even that hard. Now we need to find out what screen sharing program he was using. Jump Desktop is okay, but not as good as Parallels Access was.

      watching videos, editing them, or playing games(playable if they don't require reaction) are probably no good, but typing isn't bad at all even if the connection isn't really strong, i.e. codes, documents, accessing files, etc. I used the Chrome remote desktop a couple times. The experience is not flawless but very usable, it definitely feels like typing on an old computer due to latency.

    I got the Surface Pro a couple of years ago wondering if an all-in-one would convert me. The hardware feels nice and seems like a good idea but the biggest problem (apart from loud fans on the Intel models) is that it's really only a tabletop 'laptop.' That kickstand is impossible to use on your lap. So now if I want to do tablet stuff I grab the iPad, if I want to do laptop stuff I grab the MacBook, and the SP mostly just gets plugged into a monitor if I need Windows.

    Yes my brother, tell ‘em. I been using my iPad Pro for years. I use it more than my phone. I needed to use adobe’s apps and they either don’t work on iPad, or they are horrible and buggy. I’ve been waiting for the oled iPad for years, and I’m in love with the new iPad but I didn’t like that they didn’t improve the battery life. I have the m1 iPad Pro and as a heavy user, I have to charge it every 2-3 hours! It runs out of battery so quickly and it takes forever to charge. I was very close to getting the new surface pro, but I just couldn’t.
    So, I got a MacBook Pro with m3 pro chip this week, and the difference is very noticeable. It charges faster, lasts longer, can handle heavy tasks, apps work better, texting is easier, and the fact that I can move the cursor from the MacBook’s screen to the iPad, then drag and drop files between two different devices so seamlessly makes me glad that I didn’t switch to surface pro. That would’ve been a huge downgrade and a big risk for my data and privacy.
    Comparing Apple to Microsoft is like comparing Bentley to Honda. No matter how hard Honda tries to copy Bentley, it will never be close.
    The services, the quality, the design, the warranty, the innovation, the user-experience is just something else.

    I don't mind the UI, I just want apps and features for power users. The iPad Pro is actually the iPad Plus - it has no feature or app that can't also be used on the other models. I have used a Surface Pro for over a year and I think a mobile-first UI like on the iPad is definitely the way to go. But just porting a few apps like final cut pro is not enough. There needs to be a way to either install Mac OS applications directly in iPadOS or at least a much more efficient way of porting those applications.

I thought a 16inch m1 Macbook Air. I've got a Raspbery Pi 5 VNC remote going, it's OK but it lags enough to be irritating. I don't play games so that's not an issue.
    My plan now is to plumb loads of external drives to the MBP and run it remotely from anything. But, I won't get sound.
    I think you can't either.
    Anyone got any answers for this? Also, I'd love to access and run - lagless vis the internet. Now VNC is charging - far too much in my view for internet linking, I wonder if there is another way !
