I gave my laptop to my brother because he needs it more in his course. Now, I've been thinking to consider iPad now that I'm going to buy another laptop for me. My course is Education so I badly need apps like Microsoft Word and Powerpoint but apple has Pages, Keynote, etc. I also want to get entertainment (photos, gaming)! Plus, I'm a heavy web surfer! What do you think is a better choice between iPad 3 and laptop (for me)? Thanks a lot.
Answer
Consider this, I have owned both Mac products & windows based products & windows beats Mac 10 fold in almost every area you can think of. Think of it like this, when you Buy a Mac all your paying for is the name PERIOD. You could buy a windows based PC for more than half the price of a Mac & you can do everything a Mac can do + everything a Mac cant do.
Ipad's are not very good for nothing but surfing the web & playing little mini games, they lack the CPU power & GPU power to do anything else other than a little photo editing here & there.
Your best bet is a Windows based laptop & I have chosen a few to share with you to take into consideration!

Answer
Let me solve some of your iPad woes:
Doesn't support flash websites?
It does. There is an app for that, actually multiple apps.
The one I personally recommend is Photon Flash Player Browser for iPad, which supports all flash websites, games, widgets, etc. It is $4.99, but it is worth it, and it has replaced Safari for me.

Doesn't have a USB port?
It does (sort-of). The iPad Camera Connection Kit connects cameras and other USB devices. Unfortunately, it is a separate device you have to plug in each time, but has a much faster transfer rate than any other built-in USB port on any tablet on the market

I do use both of these with my iPad and I am quite pleased with them. I can go on all flash websites on my iPad, and I can edit my vacation photos on my iPad right from my camera without having to lug around my laptop. And Apple has the best and most photography apps on the market, while Android and Blackberry tablets have very little. And the iPad is the BEST for editing photos and using these apps, Android tablets don't have enough performance.
There is one rule in the tablet world. There is only one. The iPad. No other tablet stacks up to the best.
