Amaya Toman Ekuqaleni, i-iPad yayibonakala iyithuluzi eliphikisanayo. Kuzwakale amazwi anokungabaza ebikezela ukwehluleka kwethebhulethi ye-Apple, futhi abanye bazibuza ukuthi i-iPad ngeyani ngenkathi i-Apple isivele inikeze umhlaba i-iPhone ne-Mac. Kodwa inkampani ye-Cupertino yayazi ngokucacile ukuthi benzani, futhi i-iPad ngokushesha yaqala ukuvuna impumelelo engakaze ibonwe ngaphambili. Okungakabonakali kangangokuthi ekugcineni kwaba umkhiqizo othengiswa kakhulu ongenakuqhathaniswa ovela endaweni yokusebenzela yakwa-Apple.
Sekudlule izinyanga eziyisithupha kuphela kwasungulwa i-iPad, lapho owayeyi-CEO ye-Apple ngaleso sikhathi, uSteve Jobs, ememezela ngokuziqhenya okufanele ukuthi ithebhulethi ye-Apple yayidlula iMacy ngokudayiswayo. Lezi zindaba ezinhle nezingalindelekile zimenyezelwe ngesikhathi kumenyezelwa imiphumela yezezimali engxenyeni yesine ka-2010. USteve Jobs uthe kulesi senzakalo i-Apple yakwazi ukuthengisa ama-iPads ayizigidi ezingu-4,19 ezinyangeni ezintathu ezedlule, kuyilapho inani lama-Macs athengiswe ngesikhathi esifanayo. "kuphela" 3,89 million.
Ngo-Okthoba 2010, i-iPad ngaleyo ndlela yaba idivayisi ye-elekthronikhi ethengiswa ngokushesha kunazo zonke, yedlula ngokuphawulekayo irekhodi langaphambilini eliphethwe abadlali be-DVD. USteve Jobs wayenokholo olungenamkhawulo ku-iPad: "Ngicabanga ukuthi kuzoba ngempela, kukhulu ngempela," esho ngaleso sikhathi, futhi akazange akhohlwe ukumba amaphilisi aqhudelanayo anezikrini ezingama-intshi ayisikhombisa, kuyilapho eyokuqala. -Isizukulwane se-iPad saziqhenya ngesikrini esingu-9,7-intshi. Akazange aphuthelwe iqiniso lokuthi i-Google ixwayise abakhiqizi bethebhulethi ukuthi bangasebenzisi inguqulo yamanje yesistimu yokusebenza ye-Android kumadivayisi abo. "Kusho ukuthini uma umthengisi wakho wesoftware ekutshela ukuthi ungasebenzisi isoftware yakhe kuthebhulethi yakho?"
Igalari yezithombe
USteve Jobs wethula i-iPad yokuqala ngqa ngoJanuwari 27, 2010 futhi ngaleso sikhathi wayibiza ngokuthi idivayisi ezoba seduze kubasebenzisi kunekhompuyutha ephathekayo. Ugqinsi lwe-iPad yokuqala lwaluyiyintshi engu-0,5, ithebulethi ye-apula inesisindo esingaphezudlwana kwesigamu sekhilo, futhi idayagonali yesibonisi sayo se-multitouch ilinganiselwa amayintshi angu-9,7. Ithebhulethi inikwe amandla i-chip ye-Apple A1 ye-4GHz futhi abathengi babenokukhetha phakathi kwezinguqulo ezingu-16GB nezingu-64GB. Ama-oda angaphambili aqala ngoMashi 12, 2010, inguqulo ye-Wi-Fi yaqala ukuthengiswa ngo-Ephreli 3, ezinsukwini ezingama-27 kamuva inguqulo ye-3G ye-iPad nayo yaqala ukudayiswa.
Ukuthuthukiswa kwe-iPad kube uhambo olude kakhulu futhi kuze kwandulela ucwaningo nokuthuthukiswa kwe-iPhone, eyakhululwa eminyakeni emibili ngaphambili. I-prototype yokuqala ye-iPad yaqala ngo-2004, kanti ngonyaka odlule uSteve Jobs wathi i-Apple yayingenazo izinhlelo zokukhiqiza ithebhulethi. "Kuvele ukuthi abantu bafuna ama-keyboards," esho ngaleso sikhathi. Nokho, ngoMashi 2004, inkampani yakwa-Apple isivele yafaka isicelo selungelo lobunikazi "sedivayisi ye-elekthronikhi" emidwebeni efana kakhulu ne-iPad yesikhathi esizayo, nalapho uSteve Jobs noJony Ive basayinwa khona. I-Newton MessagePad, i-PDA eyakhishwa i-Apple ngeminyaka yawo-XNUMX, futhi ukukhiqizwa kwayo nokudayiswa kwasheshe kwanqanyulwa yi-Apple, ingabhekwa njengomanduleli othile we-iPad.
Umthombo: Inkolo ye-Mac (1), Inkolo ye-Mac (2)
Ngendlela i-Apple ekhwehlela ngayo ama-Macs, akukho okungamangaza ngakho. Ukunikezwa kwamanje mhlawumbe kungaphezu kokudabukisayo ngaphandle kwe-iMac.
Ngokuhlangenwe nakho kwami, umqondo wethebhulethi uphelelwe yisikhathi futhi uyisebenzisa kuphela njengedivayisi ekhethekile uma udinga ukuba nekhompyutha elula esandleni sakho futhi, isibonelo, unikeze isifundo kuyo noma uqoqe idatha kuyo. Ngemva kokuthenga i-laptop eguqulekayo engaguqulwa kalula ibe ithebhulethi, angiphindanga ngithinte ithebhulethi. Ngenxa yomklamo oguquguqukayo, angidingi ngisho nokuwubamba, kodwa ikhibhodi isebenza njengendawo yokumisa (ngisho emilenzeni noma ku-duvet noma etafuleni). Uma ngiphenyisisa ikhibhodi, nginekhompuyutha ephathekayo egcwele. Nginamadivayisi angu-2 kweyodwa, okungukuthi akufanele ngikhathazeke ngamadivayisi angu-2 (ukuvuselela, ukwenza isipele...) futhi ngingasebenzisa kokubili izinhlelo zokusebenza zethebhulethi kanye nezinhlelo zokusebenza zedeskithophu ezigcwele. Abayizamayo ngeke baphinde babuyele kuthebhulethi.
Inkinga nge-iPad ayikho ekwakhiweni, noma ekulawuleni, kodwa iku-iOS. Ngenxa ye-iOS, i-iPad ihlala iyi-smartphone enkulu engakwazi ukushaya izingcingo, noma ngabe ephepheni ngabe ifake ephaketheni amakhompyutha aphathekayo eminyakeni embalwa edlule. Ikhompyutha = ukuhlela, noma okungenani ikhono lokuhlela, futhi ngeke uhlanganise (noma uqalise) i-iOS ngaphandle kokushaya indlwabu ngokwedlulele noma Sawubona mhlaba. U-Apple wathatha intuthuko emuva kweminyaka engama-20 (inqubo engu-1, iwindi elilodwa, izinhlelo zokusebenza ezingaxhumekile, uhlelo lwefayela olususelwe kuzinhlelo zokusebenza) futhi ibuyisela isondo - futhi wonke umuntu, okuhlanganisa nabaqhudelana nabo abaningi, wagxumela kukho. Kodwa kufanele kushiwo ukuthi intuthuko ingahamba ngendlela ehlukile, ngakho emva kweminyaka engu-20 sizobe sikwenye indawo.
Ngokubona kwami, i-iPad inekusasa elihle, nokho, ngokususelwa ku-WWDC 2020, i-Apple ikhombise ukuthi ihlose ukugxila naku-Mac (ARM Mac, Mac OS 11 Big Sur). I-iPad ingcono kweminye imisebenzi - ukuxoxisana, izethulo zemikhiqizo, ukudala idokhumenti eqinile, ukusetshenziswa kokuqukethwe - i-Mac kwabanye - futhi ukudala amadokhumenti, ukuhlela ividiyo, ukudalwa komculo, umsebenzi omningi wochwepheshe. Kuyojabulisa ukubona ukuthi i-iPad iyaphela yini up ukubulala i-mac , noma uma yomibili imikhiqizo izoba khona kanyekanye.
