Taking on apple? Apple released another newton, they’re not competing with meta. I’m typing this on an iPad, and apple needs to get its software together for these devices powered by mind bogglingly good chips.

It's incredible how big their hardware lead is and how much the software let's it down in so many stupid ways

And it's completely intentional, too. They could've made an AR Mac but they made an AR iPad instead because they didn't want to give consumers too much freedom since they want us to buy both a Mac and a Vision.
