Will it work with my department server too?
With dropbox and wireless, a lot of the pieces are there. I do not know this VNC/SSH/telnet stuff, but if I can set it up to remotely run do-files, this would be truly revolutionary.
Are you using your iPad to do empirical work remotely and how is that working? How much loss of functionality is there in reality - assume I'm basically a borderline retarded tech person. Has anyone set up anything on their iPads (iPad only as I suspect there are other tablets where this is do-able, but I'm not a hacker and I have an iPad) such that they are accessing another processor, like a desktop, and running Stata remotely? For instance, like with a SSH/VNC console? For instance, I saw Zingersoft's SSH/VNC app which has good reviews and all the geeks are raving about.
CONNECT TEXTASTIC TO DROPBOX HOW TO
All I need is to figure out how to complete the circle with Stata. In fact, because dropbox is increasingly sync'd with almost every major app I need, and because I'm a 100 GB subscriber, there's the potential to make the iPad my do-all machine, and use my Mac Pro at work as something like a server. It has cloud compiling that allows me to compile my Tex documents, which I store in dropbox. I discovered Tex Touch last week - an app for the iPad. And then the rest of it is writing manuscripts in Latex. I'd say 60-70% of my time at work is writing do-files, creating figures and tables. I use Stata and handle regularly very large datasets. I have a designated Mac Pro with parallel processing at work, and a lot of my work is empirical.
I recently got an iPad, and am using it more and more for all the things I do everyday.
