If an iPad Pro can be your next computer, it must be a computer.

I think that quote actually emphasises that Apple describes iPads as not really computers... it only works as an ad line if it’s counter intuitive

What's a computer?

1. A device with a screen, a keyboard and some kind of pointing device.

2. A device that can be used for every purpose a computer can be used for.

The Ipad is obviously not 1, so Apple must be claiming it is/will be 2.
