Apple iPad Pro

This weekend we were reviewing what we still had to see before the end of the year and the list did not lack, of course, the iPad Pro, which, complying with what was pointed out by some leaks, has been confirmed since it will be put in reserve from tomorrow in almost fifty countries, among which, fortunately, Spain is counted. What remains to be seen now is, therefore, how well received it is. At the moment, in Apple Lossless Audio CODEC (ALAC), have not hesitated to affirm that they intend to attack directly the sector of the PC with the.

The fight between tablets and PCs

Since the first iPad tablets have always aspired to replace Desktops, or at least that always seemed like it should be his goal.
