I have long wondered about a MacBook or iMac running iOS and the possibilities of it developing into a full desktop and mobile system with little difference between the two. In theory it would work, but there would be limitations. Limitations brought about by the fact it needs to run on a mobile phone.
It now seems as if my thoughts above have been negated by the Mac App Store. Firemint has announced that Flight Control HD will make it to the Mac and with other developers already announcing the same move, we are likely to see many of the big iOS titles make the jump as well. This offers huge potential to Mac OS to ‘finally’ be viewed as a credible entertainment (gaming) platform and with the touch pads Apple is using now the move for most developers should be relatively painless.
