How the iPad Pro can get millennials hooked on iOS

Tim Bajarin, writing for PC Magazine:

Windows and Mac OS X have been my operating systems of choice for years, while iOS and Android have been supplemental OSes for smartphones and tablets. But I believe there is a changing of the “OS” guard happening as younger tech users move into the business world.

Some of this younger generation use PCs, even though most use Macs. However, much of their time is spent on phones and tablets for personal and productivity projects, particularly iPhones. I believe Apple understands this better than anyone, and the introduction of the iPad Pro is a nod to this generational trend. More importantly, I see Apple using this to drive millennials towards making iOS their OS of choice, even at work. In fact, within three to five years, I suspect Windows will be an afterthought.

Interesting analysis. Is the death of Windows imminent? Inevitable? Will iOS become the OS of choice? Will iOS replace OS X for millennials? All interesting questions.
