Linux is still a factor. The unique and broad aspects vis-a-vis its implementations on the tablets cannot be so cavalierly dismissed.

No matter how you slice it, the 770 was a first in key respects and there continues to be no direct competition for the tablets.

EDIT: and that QA slap is overly broad.
