1366x768 screen vs 2048x1536
year old tegra 3 chipset vs apple’s custom designed latest ASIC

Yep, Surface — it’s “The IPAD for DUMMIES”

And to prove that assertion, just consider 90% of the folks buying it think they can run regular x86 windows programs on it. Not that Msoft is doing anything to inform the customer this is not the case...they insist it’s “one w8 platform”.

Yeah, right. If you believe that, you DESERVE to be banished to Msoft land, forever. Don’t bother the rest of the productive world.

I wonder about the business model.

What happens when MS competes against their distribution channel, PC makers/VARs, in hardware?

Personally, I don't mind a little competition. I think a flexible, magnetic, bluetooth keyboard for the iPad might be nice.

I think the big question for MS users continues to be platform stability. How many of us have found ourselves reloading our Windows machines as they get slower and slower due to exposure to the internet? Over the period of two years my MacBook has gotten slower as well. It takes almost 21 secs, cold iron to fully functional, where it used to take 16 seconds.
