11 Things The iPad Can't Do That A Desktop or Notebook Can

   VS

The iPad Pro pre-orders begins on Nov 11th in addition to Apple CEO Tim Cook was lately interviewed past times The Telegraph in addition to mentioned that he believes "...the iPad Pro is a replacement for a notebook or a desktop for many , many people." in addition to "...why would you lot purchase a PC anymore? No actually , why would you lot purchase one?" Yes , why?

I handgrip that many things people produce on computers these days tin indeed move done on a iPad or fifty-fifty iPhone. But to basically nation 'why would you lot desire a PC anymore' mightiness move a petty also much , or is it? I promise Cook realizes that Apple sells Macbook's in addition to the iMac. I'm non certain if everyone at Apple would move happy maxim Mac computers are solely for a few.

To me it sounds similar Tim Cook isn't certain what can't move done on a iPad , that people soundless purpose computers for. Is at that spot anything? Lets uncovering out. I did a petty thinking in addition to inquiry to uncovering what people soundless purpose their laptops or desktop computers for in addition to hither are the tops answers or complaints.


No native USB / Flash Drive / External Hard-Drive / HDMI or CD/DVD Drive support. 
Yes Apple may convey cloud based alternatives , but a work-around is non a solution. You tin purchase a plug to connect a USB device - but at that spot isn't a USB port on the iPad or a plug that comes alongside the iPad - in addition to who knows if the matter you lot desire to connect volition fifty-fifty work.


Can't sentiment websites that purpose Flash.
I handgrip that the spider web should larn rid of Adobe's Flash thespian in addition to a lot of sites convey stopped using Flash , but non all.


That programme you lot purpose on a PC or Mac that isn't available on iOS.
Not all estimator programs convey a iOS version.


No sum Printer in addition to Scanner support. 


No on device storage of over 128GB. 


No File System - similar on a Mac or PC.
However inwards iOS nine Apple has added the powerfulness to exhibit the iCloud file organization on your abode screen.


Convenience.  
Some things are soundless but quicker or easier to produce on a Computer.


Multitasking alongside multiple windows - non the same. 
Yeah , inwards iOS nine you lot tin purpose side-by-side multitasking , but it's non quite the same 'easy' sense similar on a Mac.


No Xcode / Develop Programs. 
Here's a idea , what if you lot wrote those apps on a iOS device? Then I gauge your non business office of the 'many , many people.'


Professional Video Editing.
There are many video editing apps on iOS in addition to at that spot is Apple's iMovie - but if you're looking for a to a greater extent than professional person app - you're in all probability soundless sticking alongside your Mac.


No Full Support for third-party spider web browsers.
Apple has Safari in addition to has added Content Blockers inwards iOS nine , yet if you lot purpose Mozilla's Firefox or Google Chrome - you lot won't sense their sum potential on iOS alongside at that spot many Extensions.


And I certain at that spot is many , many to a greater extent than things that the iPad can't produce , that you lot tin produce on a Desktop or Notebook computer. Let us know inwards the comments what you lot produce on a Computer that you lot can't produce on a iPad!
