* * * Own an iPad & Computer? * * * Depending on the day, I can be more brash than others. Today is not one of them, in fact to the contrary. By now everyone knows the inflexibility of Apple offerings, yes people still buy them. There is a saying, You cant fix stupid, but I would rather like to modify that for the Apple folks to, You can fix illusions of grandeur. Somehow Apple is cool and cool is better than functional. -Go Figure Nevertheless, this may be my last effort to educate the those ignorant to tech for awhile. (and the congregation says AMEN) If you are like me, money does-not grow on trees. If you have a Tablet (of any brand) and still have a computer to do the stuff your tablet cannot. You may fit into one of the sayings above. You can get all of the features in one unit, no matter what the Apple Zealot tells you in the store. (Yes, WITHOUT adapters) The Tablet as we know it today was FIRST developed by Microsoft, (ACTUAL WORKING UNIT) but the tech had not caught up yet and all of those years ago, the tech was far more expensive than it is today. Honestly, there was not a lot of interest in it because of the price and at the time they were the side of a laptop. Apple STOLE the idea from Microsoft, but MS did not sue them, like Apple does now for introducing a squared phone with a button at the bottom. After leaving of most of the Real-World functionality, Apple brought out the iPad to mixed reviews. So if your tablet does not offer you a choice of apps, other than what is on their website, does not connect to a printer (either wired or otherwise), Cannot use HDMI, USB -AND- Charger at the same time, and does not have removable media (IT-IS) a waste of money. Why buy two things? -Or does that make sense?- My Samsung Note 1 (PHONE) has the ability to run Apple Apps, Open Source Apps, Android Apps, Portable Apps (from USB Drive), connect to a printer with a standard USB, or any other USB device, as well as having removable Memory, Battery, etc., play My Music, Video, Apps, Images which I can import and export without (BIG BROTHER WEBSITE-tunes) thru my TV, and so much more. IT IS JUST A 3 GENERATION OLD PHONE, and still blows the $800.00 iPad out of the water. Really? YES! Of course in 3 generations, Apple managed to make the iPad a -little- faster than my phone, but one or two seconds it not much of an improvement! It out does most of the tablets of its day, and some coming out now. iPad to mention an overpriced one of these tablets. The gift giving season is upon us, too bad that the real meaning is lost! A wise or smart person knows to buy electronics that is beyond what you know now, TODAY. Because you will grow into it, rather than grow out of it. If you never want to print and be stuck with a limited few apps-that only 1 source offers you, and spend twice as much? Run with your wallet in your mouth to the Apple store for an iPad or iFone. If you are an American, life the freedom to choose, and not have someone choose for you, then forget about the Alleged Coolness of iCrap Products and spend less money, get more, and not need to buy the same thing over and over again, but rather just expand it for a reasonable price. PS. APPLE LOST THEIR SQUARE PHONE-WITH BUTTON LAWSUIT IN VIRTUALLY -EVERY- COUNTRY BUT THE SAN FRANCISCO COURT. (COOL) APPLE IS PAYING MASSIVE AMOUNTS OF MONEY TO SAMSUNG, AND OTHERS FOR STEALING TECH! Dont believe me? Go look it up. Happy Holiday Giving. DO NOT TAKE THE WORD OF THE SALES PERSON! Compare -hands-on- for yourself, and do it over several days. Take a serious look at the New Kindle HD and the Google Nexus. Under $310 and $500 respectively. REMEMBER THE REASON FOR THE SEASON -JESUS
