I spent about 30 minutes using/touring Vision Pro yesterday. Ask me anything.

Ben mentioned he felt it would become the new Mac… do you feel the same?

That sounds a lot like “IPads are the new PC”.

@freediverx @jackifus @gruber More like, “iPhones’ are the new cell phone”.

@jackifus No. I think it’s more like the new iPad.

Hopefully not with regard to the allowable business models - that stunted iPad’s usefulness.

Half of me says “that ship has sailed” and the other half hopes that Apple execs learned a lesson and have a different _vision_

Ben’s comment on Sharp Tech that Apple is likely to lock down Vision Pro like iPad while allowing Mac openness to be accessible through the Mac’s presence within the space— rings exactly right.
