   Instead of saying that the iPad should dual boot macOS, you should be required to state the problem you’re trying to solve and explain why it can't be achieved with an App Store policy change, or missing API.

     @BenRiceM I’m not sure which it might be. I suspect it is more of the policy change. But I say let iPads be iPads and Macs be Macs. A narrative has been created that I don’t think Apple will every be able to counteract. https://warnercrocker.com/2024/05/08/thoughts-on-thoughts-about-new-ipad-pros/

     @WarnerCrocker Yeah I think I agree completely. The issue now for me is the cost of the iPad Pro is way out of whack with the amount of work I could use it for, but I'd still like to get the nicer screen ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

     @BenRiceM I did spring for an 11inch. Not just for the screen, because my previous version’s battery capacity had dipped to 70%

     @WarnerCrocker I'm holding out for WWDC to see if there’s any improvements there that make sense for me. Otherwise I’ll stick with my 2018 12" Pro for a while longer

     @BenRiceM I think that’s going to be the case for quite a few. Sort of proves the problem with the narrative.
