    <p>it's not a laptop until it has a proper filesystem and supports a tracking device. If Apple only added these two features it would become extremely interesting because it's actually an awesome machine. Beyond me why they don't.</p><p>On the other side of the fence, windows convertibles are excellent laptops but they suck as tablets. </p><p>Having a real 2 in 1 machine remains unfortunately a dream. What drives me crazy is that it would be absolutely possible from the technical point of view. Maybe they just prefer that we buy two separate devices…</p><p>V.</p>
