Why Apple's iPadOS is a legit threat to Surface Pro #AskDanWindows 60

Apple's new iPad OS is just in name only – for now, but the forked version of iOS could be a threat to Microsoft Surface down the road, at least for regular consumers (not "pros"). That's because the more iPad OS becomes like Windows 10 and the Surface, the more average people will see it as a viable light computing solution.

Also, what's the deal with Electron and JavaScript with UWP apps, and what will Windows Lite do for your "low-end PC peasants"?

All that and more on this audience-driven #AskDanWindows episode, so grab your favorite non-energy drink and watch for a few minutes!
