Using Mac inputs on the iPad looks genuinely cool. I wonder what the cutoffs will be.
Anyone else looking at everything in this room instead of Craig, trying to spot the new MacBooks?
Universal Control = BIGGER Sidecar
That's it. I've reached my tipping point.
I'm not updating ANYTHING on ANY of my devices. Going to wait until at least GM, maybe even for the dust to settle and build up / 'update' if I get a new device in which case I have no choice.
I seriously feel like Chris Farley rn

Clearly if Craig's still rocking an old MacBook Pro we're not getting them.
Universal Control is a cool addition. Will make for great comparisons to the competition in commercials.
Ok. So Universal Control is awesome... but I still wish it had Windows 10 support.
and yet we can't use the imac as a second screen
Oh wow! So I could have my MacBook off to the side running different apps and distribute the computing between devices with one control interface? That's so sick!
Monterey is in Big Sur, so that suggests this is a “Snow Leopard” or “Mountain Lion”-type update,
Universal control is the only thing I remember of all the features that was announced today.
Universal Control – announced two days after I bought the Magic Keyboard …
This keynote is about as exciting, as a root canal.
I wasn't going off "hype" but more of a reasonable assumption that a company that puts their flagship processor onto their newest iPad, would come up with a more robust OS for their "laptop killer".
1hr 24m in and I’m finally excited -universal control.
I don't think I've ever seen a feature that is simultaneously so neat and so confusing. Like, I have no clue when I'd want to switch so rapidly between iOS and macOS.
the thing I wanted was to be able to use the iPad keyboard and trackpad to control a Mac...guess ill be waiting a bit longer
SO you can use the iMAC has a secondary display now for MBP and iPAD?!?!? That is really interesting
