Comments on: Comparing the iPad to the First Macintosh http://spurspectives.com/comparing-the-ipad-to-the-first-macintosh/ Thoughts on the intersection of social media and 1:1 marketing Thu, 17 May 2012 12:58:00 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.5.1 By: David Svet http://spurspectives.com/comparing-the-ipad-to-the-first-macintosh/#comment-8884 David Svet Wed, 07 Apr 2010 15:08:43 +0000 http://spurspectives.com/?p=210#comment-8884 Two great questions! The discard pile concerns me and I don't have an answer. It's expensive and wasteful. I have a similar problem at my office with old computing equipment. I pay to have it recycled. iPad or wait and see? Hmmm. iPad SHOULD be compatible with most of my world and SHOULD evolve quickly. That being said, some of the netbook makers and content providers will have a huge impact on adoptions. Remember how VHS beat the better Beta video format when the porn industry standardized on VHS? The most popular application for tablets will probably have a big impact on tablet sales. Two great questions! The discard pile concerns me and I don’t have an answer. It’s expensive and wasteful.
