Yes the mini with retina has the same hardware such as the chip as the Air.

Hey, Alan, et al,

I think I saw those same keyboards for the Minis as well. My thought is that in 
that case, the only difference between the two iPads is screen size, which I 
don't care about, since I have no sight. They are about $100 US different in 
price. They have the same chip, right? Of course, the keyboards for each might 
be different. I could see the iPad Air having a full keyboard.

I would go with the iPad Air instead of the mini sense she is looking for something 
to replace an aging computer.  The iPad Air in a QWERTY keyboard case is around the 
size of a Windows Netbook or a screen size that's roughly 10 by 5 inches.  Before 50 
people write in to give me the exact dimensions I said approximately <grin>  I 
too wanted a replacement for a computer.  In my case, it was to replace an XP laptop. 
 The Air is solid state and has no moving parts like the iPhone etc.  With the QWERTY 
case, it actually closes like a laptop as well and, when you don't need the keyboard, 
it's very easy to remove the iPad from the case.  I should say too that the QWERTY 
keyboard is powered by a rechargeable battery.  It takes 3 hours to fully recharge a 
dead keyboard and a charge lasts me roughly 2 weeks to a month depending on how often 
I reply to messages.

HTH

Hello Teresa, I would recommend you get a iPad mini if that suits your needs. 
It is a good device. I also have a iPad mini and are you for the following gate 
some music, texting, and so much more. Comes very useful for my needs.

Hi, all,

I have a computer that needs a hard-drive replacement, at the very least, and 
possibly has a failed logic board. I'm seriously considering replacing it with 
an iPad. Price is only somewhat an issue, since there seems to be only about 
$100 US difference between a new model I would want and the iPad. Mainly, I 
don't want the hassle of replacing moving parts and getting dust and cat-hair 
and such snarled up in it. I'm also extremely comfortable with iOS and use my 
iPod 5th gen constantly. I intend to use the iPad with a keyboard.

So has anyone else taken this sort of step? Am I out of my mind, or do you 
think this is doable?

I am a casual user. I read books, browse the web, play videos and music and 
games, and occasionally write for informal publications.

What do you guys think?

Teresa
