iPad. doesnt matter windows or mac, iOS different enough, and any sort of Android phone OS on a tablet is bad.

You have to spend $$ on a Samsung to get something decent

This one, Its been cheaper, $250, but waiting for that to happen again is futile.

if you're the tech support, get an iPad.

As asked before, are you the IT support? Get what you are familiar with as you will need to know it to explain it, and if you have to learn the other OS in addition to all else you have to do, you are only adding stress onto your life.

The OS on the tablet will be different enough for the user that it won’t make much difference to them whether it’s Android or iOS. Make your life easier, not harder.

Assisted living homes are full of iPads. Go for it.

No matter what, stay away from the Fire tablets. They are cheap but a real PITA to keep going.

And to add on to this, the same mother who used the iPad never did master the Fire she bought for reading books. Reading was fine, but if she tried anything else she ended up calling my brother. It ended up collecting dust.
