I was going to get the next generation of the iPad Pro but not now. It has become almost impossible to surf the web and read any article without that site having to constantly reload! I have the iPad 2 and surfing the web is a nightmare!
Not an issue at all on my eight year old iMac. IPad for web surfing sucks big time!

Using an iPad 2 in 2016 to surf the internet is like shaving your pubes to avoid lice and wearing a merkin in 2016.

So what? My iMac is almost nine years old with Snow Leopard and surfs the web like a dream!

They've always been rather useless.

I've never gotten accustomed to the size of tablets. Makes for awkward typing.

It's the age. That ipad is almost unusable. Get an air 2 or pro.

Must be user error. I don't have any of these problems. Of course, I mainly use Android devices to surf.

Netscape keeps crashing on my Compaq as well. Very frustrating

The problem you described would be fixed by the Pro (or Air/Air 2). Your 8 year old iMac has more memory in it to handle larger page sizes than an iPad 2.
