    In response I've decided to "rally the troops" and put up a petition to show Apple, that there are more than enough potential Tablet Mac users to warrant a product.
    You want a Tablet Mac from Apple - Sign the petition!

  • devmage, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0It will happen alright. The Imac practically looks like a tablet pc. I'm also pretty sure there will be no special version for it because apple doesn't like to maintain mutliple version of the OS.
