boy howdy. iPadOS 17 beta. as i type this, i’m using an M1 iPad Pro attached to a 35” widescreen monitor at it’s native aspect ratio, via a twelvesouth dock. i’ve got a mechanical keyboard and bluetooth mouse paired. i have two apps in split-screen on the internal iPad display. i have two apps side by side in Stage Manager on the 35” display.

this feels like a “real computer.” like, i’ve been using this for a while and i kinda forgot this is an iPad and not my Mac desktop.

like seriously. here are screenshots of the separate desktops (don’t be creepy). And one of the Settings for Display where you can _arrange_ the displays!

Apple is … finally letting the iPad be a Real Computer?
