They already told us what laptop it would be---an HP ProBook. But now they are asking us to decide whether we'd prefer that laptop or an IPad.
I know we have some die-hard Apple fans, and some diehard anti-Apple fans, but I would like a realistic opinion of which one you all would prefer. I would do a lot of grading/word processing/ powerpoint stuff, and then who knows what else I could use the ipad for (if I ever became an english teacher i know it would be good for reading books).
Anyone have any ideas/opinions?

If those are your needs then a laptop hands down.
