I dunno. I love the iPad, but my wife still works on her 2009 Thinkpad T400s 8+ hours a day.

I keep trying to buy her a new one but she doesn’t want it, it still works fine.

Thinkpads can really last these days.

I love my Thinkpads. And only one of them is new (I bought the AMD version and I love it). I should have clarified that I was speaking more about the non-tech's perspective on something that "just works" versus something that needs regular tweaking, restarts, updates that halt all other operations for some time, and all the other joys of living with a Microsoft OS that we've learned to live with.
