I want it for the virtual monitor aspect. Especially since I have adhd, I think this would possibly cut down on distractions.
Even that seems kinda half ass in this version. Like you think you'd be able to drag a window from your monitor outside the monitor. Instead, it just... Shows your monitor again.
I am not the target market for this device though. I'm not really sure who is, beyond the diehard apple people.
I do find it funny how quickly apple pr moves from the "when they do something they do it right" to "well this is first gen so we expect it has some flaws".
Oh you’re right. I don’t like that you can only have one virtual monitor. I mean it it 4k as large as you want but come on.
IMHO they don’t “do it right” the first time. They wait until the market is ripe enough, and then fill a hole that no one else has done, or at least correctly. And I don’t even think they’ve done that here, at least yet. But the hardware is very solid, the software needs help.
