Donny, check out the Dell 11.6 inch 2 in 1 computer. I bumped up the ram from 4gb to 8gb. Has a 500gb hard drive. Folds in half to act like a tablet, but opens up to act like a notebook computer. Touch screen running Windows 10. I paid $229 @ Office Depot. They matched online price. You get all the functionality of a full blown pc and tablet combined. I think the model I have is Dell 3185. Food for thought. JM Dell Latitude 7400 2 in 1

All the music apps are available.. and support for apple models lasts 5 or more years.(android software updates about 6 months) However, its not a cheep options, but also for apple goes you get what you pay for. If i had to compare apple to a keyboard brand, it would be Yamaha Where android devices varry from Korg all the way down to Medelli.. _________________________ Yamaha Genos, Roland Jupiter 80, Ipad pro. http://keyszone.boards.net

Ipad is not an option since it cant be split into more then 2 multiple displays at once unless I am mistaken... I need 3 plus a music player all on on screen open.

The touch screen allows for instant access to way more than 3 windows, so in effect, you can have dozens of windows available, and a music player always at hand in each. They are different beasts, and if you take the time to adjust your technique, you may find that a tablet can be much easier than a laptop screen that is run by a keyboard, and mouse. I made the switch long ago, and haven't looked back. _________________________ No longer monitoring this forum. Please visit www.daveboydmusic.com for contact info

Well it looks like a road trip breakfast & tablet demo.. it will take a lot to convince me..... but, if I see it in action for my needs as you say it will give me more to consider.

What you want is a windows tablet/ all in one with touchscreen.. Even better, a laptop that can be turned into a tablet.. If you want 3 screen sections, i would go for windows.. _________________________ Yamaha Genos, Roland Jupiter 80, Ipad pro. http://keyszone.boards.net

Uncle Dave Senior Member Registered: 12/01/99 Posts: 12800 Loc: Penn Yan, NY	I repeat ... they are not the same thing. Ipad offers infinite window access, and Zero delay looking for music player. If you want a laptop - great, but the ipad has incorporated the touchscreen in a whole new way. (as usual, for innovative Apple) Both have a place in the workforce, but they are not the same animal, so to compare the two formats is a bit unfair. They work very differently. With that said ... I know where Donny is coming from. Been there, but moved ahead. Sleek, fast, reliable, and smaller footprint in the rig. Donny - Come see my new studio, and I'll demo!
