I'm more thinking about multitasking and all that. For things like web development I usually have open:

- photoshop/illustrator/sketch - a bunch of chrome tabs for research and one with dev tools open - sometimes safari for testing - a task app to keep track of what needs doing - multiple screens so I can use one for reference/research and the other for work

I suppose much of that could work on an iPad Pro assuming it can keep that much stuff in memory and assuming that I can use a keyboard to task-switch. But the multiple screens could be an issue.

I can't fathom doing all of my web dev Photoshop work without a cursor and mouse. A pen seems fine for art projects, but for tasks requiring pixel precision?
