Gang,
It's been a few months since anyone's posted about this topic elsewhere. So I'm a bit curious about your opinions: I'm assuming Desktop is out of the question, but maybe someone has an interesting take on it.
I currently have a Macbook Pro (from 2009). I used it throughout college, and recently replaced a broken hard drive with a Solid State Drive (SO nice and fast!). But I'm starting to fall into the tablet hype for many reasons, including easy and efficient note-taking. This begs the question: iPad, iPad Mini, Microsoft Surface, or some other tablet?
Any opinions welcome with facts about why this or that device. I know I like the Apple interface (I'm lucky enough to also own an iPhone 4), so that's what I'm most familiar with, but not opposed to learning something new if it is amazing.
From what I've read elsewhere, here is what my "current" opinion is as I'm posting this: Apple iPad Mini is the way to go because, although the weight difference is only ~0.65-0.76 pounds (but about 50% weight difference - making it noticeable). This is from what I've read on other doctor/clinic forums, and the weight difference was pretty heavily noted as the deciding factor. But I know virtually nothing of Google tablets, or the Surface.
Thank you all in advance!![Smile :) :)](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
