iPadOS is going to bridge that gap a lot more and should be out of beta
in the next 30 days.
Apple doesn't have a touchscreen laptop, so in many ways I can
appreciate them taking their time on this. Windows with touchscreens
sucked until they made the Surface.

It sounds like you are settling on a very good choice. But it’s not
really an iPad or any kind or pad or tab, it’s more of an
ultraportable laptop with a touchscreen display that can transform
into a desktop.
Which is fine. I used to say an iPad isn’t a small computer, it’s a
big phone. I don’t think that has really changed. What has changed is
the average person is no longer interested in having a computer, they
want a smartphone, and/or a handheld Netflix viewing device. But for
actual computer work, phones and tablets are pretty lame. Not sure
where a Chromebook fits.

All the ports you need
With two high-definition video ports, a gigabit Ethernet port, four
USB 3.0 ports, and an audio output, you have all the connections you
need. Transform your Surface into a desktop PC by plugging in your
Dock with the Surface Connect cable.

Dock to a nice large monitor, a normal sized keyboard and mouse.
Be nice to drop it into a slot when I am at the office.

*Subject:* [AFMUG] OT iPad question
My wife is busy (for months) planning some travel for this
fall. She told me I am not taking my laptop. Too big, too
heavy etc etc. (I actually left it on a train at Heathrow
once, had enough time to go catch that same train and found
it.)But I digress.
She says I can have an iPad. I acquiesce due to the fact that
she micro manages these trips and I don’t have to do a thing.
She likes it that way and I like it that way. I just go where
I am told to go and I pay. She makes sure I have clean
clothes and the proper tickets needed for travel as well as
hotel rooms. It is actually pretty wonderful. She teams up
with my UK son-in-law as he is like this too.
But again, I digress.
I know almost zero about iPads. I need a human size
keyboard. Hopefully one with keys that physically move. I
would like to be able to plug in an HDMI monitor too. Mouse?
Dear Borg, what are my options?
