No, but I will tell you it's not a Mac and it's not a Windows machine.
I think Apple may have taken computing to a new level with the iPad - my
wife is even interested in one now.
But it's hardly intuitive for her -- I've had to to walk her through
using mine and she still has to ask "What do I do now?" a lot.
I will also say that an iPad, while being a computer, is much less
capable than either a Windows PC or a Mac.
