Doing Windows apps on a iPad???

Taken from:

Absolutely you can do Windows Applications (Word, Excel, PowerPoint, etc.) on an iPad.  The concept is to have a 'Virtual Desktop' in the cloud (for those reading this blog - and also in my graduate class, this was last week's assignment!!).  Some issues are the speed and the cost.  Tackling the cost first - the article says $5.99 a month.  The speed will depend on your connection - WiFi - or 3G / 4G connection.

So, you are a Windows user who wants to have the smaller, more portable (and ... many 'sexy') iPad - you don't have to change much - just get the Virtual Desktop and run with it!!!
