Chicago Grid | A crazy-expensive, poorly functioning remote access app that is still fascinating

Lead paragraphs from an extensive Andy Ihnatko review
"This is going to be one of those ultra-rare reviews in which I think something is so interesting and nifty that I’m eager to write about it right away … and yet the thing in question comes with so many problems that after praising its many virtues, I can’t recommend it.
I’ve no doubt that Parallels Access, a spiffy new remote-access app for the iPad, could some day serve as a strong argument that nobody who owns a full-size iPad has any need whatsoever for a MacBook Air, or a Windows ultrabook. But this debut edition has too many rough edges to justify its eye-popping price."
