• Cheers. That's helpful.

    iPad

    My thought too, but apparently it's a no.

    God even 2nd hand it's not cheap. Sounds like it'll be a new Air... either way it seems so much to spend for someone who probably just needs a budget Chromebook. But definitely better than the £2k he's being upsold to :)

  • My thought too, but apparently it's a no.

    If it helps, it looks like you can now use a mouse with an iPad. It's making me consider selling my Windows 10 laptop since I could now use an iPad to Remote Desktop to my home and work machines.

    Hard to ask someone why it's a no without sounding combative, but what does he expect to do with it that he needs a proper Mac for?

    For 2k he could get a Macbook Air and an iPad and have some spare change still.

  • It's someone's dad. There will be no reasoning.

    He's old and resistant to change. He currently has an old mac on it's last legs, so he's familiar with the OS - processing wise there is nothing he needs, that probably couldn't just be done on a phone -it's just a screen size issue. Everyone but him agrees the sensible middle ground is probably an ipad

    @tonylast - that's a really good idea. I'll suggest it.
