> Besides digital drawing and handwriting, there is very little you can accomplish on an iPad that you can't accomplish far more easily on a Mac.

Synth apps are superior on a multitouch screen. Whenever I try them on a Mac it's like I just have one finger. You can set up external MIDI control for apps, but the iPad is just immediate with no extra hardware. (And of course there are dozens of great, cheap synth apps for iPad.)

Games may be content consumption, but multitouch enabled games (board games, card games, rts, etc.) are great on the iPad. Also Apple actually cares about iPad gaming, while their commitment to Mac gaming is lukewarm at best.

Duolingo may also be content consumption, but I greatly prefer its web app on the iPad to the Mac version.
