Re: Will the tablet world change now?
I would love to see tablets replacing physical books. I am an IT professional half of my rooms if filled with books and it is difficult to dispose old books. Once all these Microsoft press and other publications start selling iBooks it will be fun to read it in iPads. I think iBooks provide more description with videos and voices. Hate to use physical books

In my town, the school district is loaning out tablets that contain the text books used by the high school students. No more heavy back-packs!

For $199, it will be interesting and possibly change the "tableting" world.
But what would be more controversial/drastic is if they priced it at $299 and had a very revolutionary ecosystem. |

What is wrong about a full format of any HDD with Windows on it? :D Since I have to use Win at work (which is a pain in the a...) and since some games are only there, I always have the pleasure to minimize Windows on my HDDs with the corresponding Linux partitioners. :D |
Re: Will the tablet world change now?
The RT version is up for pre order. I'm waiting for a pro version windows 8 to my collection.
Still not sure I get the surface. But a full desktop environment is on my mind. And As I understands it, not yet confirmed or denied, and you can also load your favorite Linux distribution if you wants to. I think the world will change. The change will be that desktop and tablets,running the same os and applications. That's great devices gets more powerful. |
Re: Will the tablet world change now?
Damn it, that pro version was a bit overpriced I think. Ativ smart pc was a better choice :D

But for me it would be a replacement for my primary PC and my tablet, replacing my ThinkPad X-series subnotebook and my firesaled HP TouchPad. (That is, it would replace everything except my media PC, which is attached to my television.) I wouldn't need much power nor built-in storage, but an 11.5" IPS screen would be nice. And for pocketable stuff, heck, in the right circumstances, like for foreign travel, I'll still carry my N800 and bluetooth GPS transmitter! |
Re: Will the tablet world change now?
Seems to be a nice device. But does it have a keyboard? kickstand?

Re: Will the tablet world change now?

Re: Will the tablet world change now?
I realize that I prefer a GOOD laptop (in my case Lenovo X230) over some crappy Tablet.
The reasons are I can: * pornsurf * read/write mail * develop apps because it has a keyboard * watch films * real linux OS * Read news With a tablet I can only: * pornsurf * Read news * Watchj clips the rest is just crap on a tablet especially because todays tablet OS:s sucks bigtime. |

I'm actually interested in the Lenovo Helix.
Just need a decent pricetag and Haswell. Oh, and dualboot OpenSUSE (or in my words "susey"). |
Re: Will the tablet world change now?
I just got my Surface Pro 128 GB...My already retina Ipad collecting dust and my new Nexus 7 is like a cheep toy compared to this bad boy!

It's possible to install Ubuntu, but I haven't tried it yet. But it seems like the Wi-fi has some problems ATM. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZygXCR6qqGs |

So what is tablet offering better than the competitors, and why would you buy this instead of any competitors. I am asking this because I was interested in buying a Sony Vaio 10" Windows 8 tablet. |

Win8 have a fantastic resource management system. Here is the proof. http://i40.tinypic.com/24w7rqh.png I even compared it to a friend with 6GB (4gb available because we need 32bit version) and it was absolutely no difference in the way the OS was running. The only problem is that I can't run games and he can, and trust me, I ain't no gamer. Quote:

How much was your Surface. Who is the actual producer of the hardware? |

Don't know the price exactly, got it from my employer but I guess the price is around $800 is US. It's Microsoft that is the producer, but I don't know who they hired to do the actual job. |

This is just like Beats by Dr. Dre. On all the hardware and headsets it's Beats logo, as the main producer Microsoft is featured, but the actual producer is Monster. |

MS haven't done well at all with their Surfaces, and are offering various deals on them ATM, if the Pro versions come down further, they'll become very tempting indeed.

Re: Will the tablet world change now?
Double the battery life (increase weight, thickness, whatever) and I'd buy it.
