    Hi all,

    your input on the ipad as work tool is required,

    can it display websites like the LG one which requires loads of active X add in’s and is there available a decent parts database, or would a nettbook with a decent hard drive be better.

    Bob.

    Flash is widely used still even though Apple and Google want to see the back of it. A number of Trade Sites use Flash and the latest version of Android 4.2.1 do not support it. Maybe if you need 100{e5d1b7155a01ef1f3b9c9968eaba33524ee81600d00d4be2b4d93ac2e58cec2d} compatibility then a notebook running Windows XP is the way, I was using that setup but now a have a Nexus 7, whilst its limited some sites those sites tend to be ones I use now and then and access to those can usually wait until I am back in front of a windows machine.

    The portability of a Tablet, Instant start up, small footprint make the tablet much more manageable .

    It’s not Flash that’s the biggest issue there.

    It’s Active X components and lazy developers.

    Limits it to IE but you can often get round that with the likes of Atomic but, only to a degree.
