When you come to a fork in the road, take it, Yogi Berra is alleged to have said. Microsoft chose this bon mot to guide its Windows 8 strategy, converging mobile and desktop in a way that pleased no one. And now the new iPad Pro (http://www.macworld.com/article/2982582/ipad/hands-on-with-the-ipad-pro-built-for-getting-stuff-done.html) sits beside the 12-inch MacBook (http://www.macworld.com/article/2908115/review-the-new-12-inch-macbook-is-a-laptop-without-an-ecosystem.html) to suggest Apple is approaching that very same fork.</p><p>
I was confused during Apple’s introduction of the 12.9-inch iPad Pro, which has a display so large, it can nearly fit two iPad Air 2s side by side. The Pro’s focus on drawing seems highly specialized. And despite some other productivity features, the iPad Pro doesn’t seem to have a natural audience. Yes, it has amazing specs, but can a bigger, pencil- and keyboard-compatible iPad really be the answer to Apple’s stalled tablet sales?</p><p class="jumpTag"><a href="/article/2983385/ipad/the-ipad-pro-is-a-pilot-fish-for-apples-arm-laptop.html#jump">To read this article in full or to leave a comment, please click here[/url]</p></section></article>
