[QUOTE="shutyertrap, post: 35136, member: 134"] Ya know, with tech in general, but Apple specifically, at some point you just have to jump in and accept what you got. There is something always just around the corner with Apple, a major reason I'd avoided them for so long, but what're you gonna do? My wife wanted a tablet last winter, and we took 'em all for a quick spin at the store. Neither of us has a smart phone, so the whole 'touch' aspect of a tablet was new, and ultimately the iPad was easiest for her to get the hang of. So we waited for the 3 to come out, despite many friends saying we'd be fine with the 2. But hey, we got the retina display, it runs great, and I'm not pissed a new one is coming out cause I'm not planning on buying another tablet for some time. My PC is 6 years old, its a freakin' dinosaur, I'm still running XP and only have a 4:3 monitor! Since I don't demand much of my computer, it works for me. In the meantime, I managed to avoid Vista completely and will let Windows 8 work out its kinks before I'm ready for a new one. But when that time comes for me to jump in again, I'll enjoy swimming in the current of whats now, fully knowing I'll drift rather quickly to the side as newer, faster, and better comes up right quickly. I guess what I'm trying to say with my rambling is, the only way I'd be pissed about the new iPad is if it was significantly better and $100 cheaper. Then I'd feel like I got burned. [/QUOTE]
