Never owned a Windows machine, and used nothing but Mac since '96 when I graduated from Art School; and I have to agree. Since phones and tablets entered the Apple line-up they have stopped innovating in their PCs, just look at what has happened to the Mac Pro.

They do have the iPad Pro, which you think they would target the Surface Pro with, and start to move their personal computing line in that direction, which seems to be what the future of computing is anyway, but they just aren't. I don't understand what they are doing. Anyway, I'm happy to hear your thoughts on the Surface Pro. I have a friend who's an illustrator and loves his, but he's always been Windows, and never liked Mac, so I never took it that seriously; but to hear a Mac Fan Boy's impression, holds a lot of water.

The Peak Design Leash sort of upset me a bit. As someone who loves the original Leash, they should have renamed it IMO, as it looses a lot of the versatility that the original Leash had; as it could actually be attached as a leash would be. My thoughts on the original product was that it was marketed toward outdoors enthusiasts, like climbers, backpackers, etc as it could attach to a belt, backpack strap, etc. so that if you dropped your camera it would still be attached. Which is the whole purpose of a leash when it comes to outdoor activities. But, the new designs are beautiful. Just wish they wouldn't get rid of the original design.

Looking forward to the "Showdown"...

Thanks. Keep up the good work.
