Let it run OSX and I'd buy it

What’s the appeal of an iPad running OSX over a Mac?

It would be super useful.

When you want to draw something you go to tablet mode and use the pencil. - When the drawing you made needs some editing that iPad software can't do then you switch to mac os mode and finalize the drawing.

Do some programming in mac mode because programming on ipad is extremely limited. - Then when you're done coding you switch to tablet mode and relax with some touch based jigsaw puzzle games.

When you have to use the windows-only programs that work mandates you have to use then you go to mac mode with attached keyboard and run it through parallels. - Then that evening you switch to tablet mode and chill in bed reading a comic book.

Etc etc etc.

All the things that are better done on a mac, and all the things that are better done on an iPad, they all have no reason for existing on separate hardware
