Apple finally destroyed Steve Jobs’s vision of the iPad. Good. That’s my thinking in my latest for WIRED, which explores how Cupertino has done the thing it swore it never would: turn its tablet into a full-blown window-wrangling, compromise-abandoning computer. Yes, it’s better, but lurking deep in the settings the ghost of Jobs remains.

I replaced my Mac with an iPad for an entire week. It went as well as you’d expect. This piece, also for WIRED, went all-in. I shut down my iMac and used an iPad running iPadOS 26 for a week to see if it could pass muster. And the article title? It’s probably a Rorschach test, because what happened during the week included plenty of surprises – not all of them bad.

What would you do if Google, Apple and Microsoft closed your cloud accounts without warning? My column for Stuff this week expands on my mulling over the point a couple of weeks back. In short, the cloud is great – until it isn’t. If big tech slams the door in your face, you can lose everything.

Apple’s new operating systems aren’t all bad. For TapSmart, I recommend 7 things to try first with iOS 26 and iPadOS 26.

What’s wrong with Apple? The company is insanely rich. Its hardware is phenomenally popular. And yet a prevailing narrative argues things are all going wrong. Again for TapSmart, I explore why.

I went to Iceland. First long trip in some time. Visited family. Saw some sights. Lots of time to just sit and watch the world go by, which I really needed. Naturally, I also shot dozens of photos. I’ll be sharing some of my favourites on Bluesky and Mastodon over the coming weeks. Iceland is such a beautiful country.
