Why do you keep thanking yourself? And how do you do it?

Eclipse and Photoshop with a touch interface sounds awesome!

It sure does, but sadly all efforts using the snipping tool with your fingers has the same level of accuracy as spreading butter on to toast with your Wang! ;)

Seriously though, there are some tasks that are next to impossible without a cursor.

"Microsoft Surface with Windows 8 Professional will come in 64 GB and 128 GB storage models and will have a retail price comparable with competitive Ultrabook class PCs."

Do you think you will get one 128 GB for $1000? above that I think it would be to expensive.

You know. I'm actually really digging my Android tablet.

I got an OG transformer, with the neato keyboard. It's pretty legit.

Pretty damn good battery life. And does what I need it to do.

I used it for school, so no big deal.

It's like owning an Android phone... but not having to put up with the crap involved with one.

It runs nice and smooth, even if it's a little low tech by now.

Ya know what could tip me for one of these Microsoft tablets? Another keyboard.

Now, I actually think the cover keyboard is pretty awesome, but I would much prefer a harder, thicker (dirty sounding) keyboard, with another built-in battery.

Seriously, the Transformer tablet keyboard is pretty great. yes, it adds a good bit of size and weight, but the extra large battery, and USB ports are worth it. I could totally see something like this working for the "Surfaces" because ya know, they're gonna drain battery like no one's business.

and touch typing on a 10 inch tablet makes me feel like a Neanderthal.:D
