    I don’t see the reason they’re delaying. A tablet running MacOS is what a lot of people want and the price is comparable to a MacBook Air.

    It feels like they’re gearing up to do this but they just need to pull the pin at the right time.

      Exactly because of that. If they allow macOS on the iPad then people will only need to buy one device. Right now people are forced into buying two devices (thus more profits) because iOS is heavily restricted and doesn’t cover on all their needs.

      They also want to people to be running iOS and not macOS because everything is code signed and allows them to gatekeep applications. It is way more likely they’ll eventually add a few more desktop UI to iOS and kill the MacBook line than allowing macOS as it is right now into the iPad.
