If the Ipad had a mouse it would be easier.

Native on the Ipad using dropbox and docstogo to access word, excel and pp.

Any better options besides the two I mention plus the fact of trying this new Onlive desktop

Along with dozens of other programs. AND I don’t need to pay a subscription fee for what is essentially just a Remote Desktop application except it goes to a third party server instead of your own computer.

Stupid, stupid, stupid!

Complete freedom from device upgrading. Buying a 400. Video card every 3 years will be history. Eventually.
