The Mac is wonderful to use once you get used to the difference from Microsoft to Apple but they are very expensive to buy compared with your standard PC .
Tablets irritate me - I want a "real" keyboard, not a touchscreen with gestures.
And something with USB ports that I can connect devices to (external HardDrive for backup, Printer).
i don't need the unnecessary frustrations of using Wireless printers - wht complicate things?
However, when it comes to portability .... and general web use and email and minor document work..a tablet is winner hands down... (good tablet not cheapies)

brought them to the market,
And to be honest I find my iPad quite indispensable
I use it all the time
I have friends in the states & South Africa
Who I am usually in contact with most days
These are great days for new technology
