99% of John Gruber posts are glowing reviews of Apple products. His blog is essentially promotional material for Apple. I'm not sure why people post his articles here.

I read one or two critical pieces. Still though he is very kind to them.

#6To me, the fundamental question remains this: what platform is the next web browser, BitTorrent, or BitCoin going to be invented on?
I posit that while the iPad remains a closed platform, it will never become the computer of the future, no matter how many pro features Apple adds. In a few years, I expect Apple pundits to be making the same "how were we so wrong on the iPad" articles that they were in 2016.
No doubt, the hardware here is certainly exciting. Many people can make full use of it for their careers. But it won't send ripples through the fabric of society like the humble PC does every 5-10 years.

Gruber is a well known Apple shill.

#8I would love to see one day iPad Pros with the capability of being plugged into an external GPU and running desktop-grade applications instead of the meek productivity tools that the Apple App Store is constrained to. As a college student, I recently bought an iPad to take notes, and the one thing that's stopping me from selling my laptop is the lack of connectivity and full MacOS. But then where's the future of MacBooks if tablets overtake them in utility?

Eh, he'd referred to Apple serving a shit sandwich before. So he can be critical.

#10Does it work with a mouse? One of the most important client applications for me is an RDP connection to a VDI machine on Windows.
