    All I can think of is how much people were looking forward to Star Wars Episode I and how much of a piece of garbage it was. Now, thinking about how much all of us were looking forward to this new MacBook Pro only to find out that they just added the glorified touch bar and changed all the...

    iPad Pro needs "video in" (ie. cintiq)

    (First, let me say, Astropad and Duet Display aren't what I'm looking for. See further down for explanation.) tl;dr iPad Pro can almost be a portable Cintiq. Just needs a "video in" connection, probably USB-C. What do you think the chances are of an upcoming iteration of iPP receiving this...
