Pads, i and otherwise, are portable webTV. Capable of some small apps, but not of desktop level application usage. And no 75% of the desktop enterprise machines don’t only browse the web and do e-mail, you’re just plain making up stats on that one.

And THERE you raise the Straw Man and wave him around and expect us to bow down to him. Discostu, I did not say that 75% of desktop enterprise machines only "browse the web and do e-mail"... you've artificially reduced the iPad's capabilities to that limited set for YOUR purposes.

My point is that the iPad has MORE computing capacity and capability than the vast majority of what is needed or used on the Enterprise desktop. It certainly has more power and capacity than what existed and was used productively on that desktop less than five years ago. . . and still exists on many of those desktops. Your assertions of it's limitations fly in the face of our experiences both working with the iPad AND working in the Enterprise in IT, AND seeing what people in business are actually doing with it, that you dismiss with the wave of your Straw Man limitations you claim for something you really have little experience with.

Yup, true to form. You’ve already started with the lies and the insults. This is what you always do. You lie about what people said, and you insult them, and then you insist they’re trolls. It’s funny, in a sad pathetic way.
