Metro is consistent, that is the point of it. WP, Xbox, desktops, they all share the same ECOSYSTEM. You say that you will have to be taken out of metro in order to run the software, and cite your reason being that developers won't write apps for Metro. Guess what? Last time I checked the iPad had to have different…

I would call you a fanboy, but that doesn't even begin to describe it.

No mouse, unusable OS for actual computing, no ports. 0/10.

This comment is extremely uneducated, learn your facts before posting. There are two different Surface tablets, one is a normal tablet, one is essentially an ultra book without a built in keyboard. The normal tablet version cannot get viruses, it's a closed OS like the iPad, and don't bring up viruses for full…

*facepalm* Did you honestly just say that W8 isn't a touch OS? It's more of a touch OS than iOS, do you even know that W8 exists or are you assuming these will be runnning W7? And the reason tablet PCs failed is because the tech wasn't there to make it good.

I dislike these because they're loud and annoying. My family rarely vacuums so you don't have to worry about that annoying noise, now that we have one of these my parents have no problem throwing this down at any time. It was beautiful when it was dirty and quiet, now it's clean and loud.

I don't know why everyone's complaining about Microsoft announcing their tablet much earlier than release, it makes perfect sense. When Apple announces things they announce them as close to release date as possible, and that makes sense, because they don't want to lose sales of their current product. Microsoft right…

Not at all, where the hell did you get those prices? The ARM tablet is spec'd as one of the best out there, therefore will of course be in the same price range. The Pro is running an entire computer, just without an attached keyboard; it's just as powerful as something like the MBA so will be priced accordingly. I…

This is the most different a tablet has been even the iPad was and is really just a stretched out iPhone, it didn't add anything to the table with phone vs tablet other than size. This is what a tablet was supposed to be, it's actually useful and can do things, this is the only acceptable reason for owning a tablet.…

Take what you said and apply it to your comment. Saying Apple's marketing ISN'T a HUGE part of their success is one of the most ridiculous things I've ever heard.

A Rolex is not a generic term for these devices, it's just one of the brands, called "Rolex".

The Lumia is a long-term solution, it was never expected to "save their ass" with the specs it was released with. It was simply a way to get their name and reputation out, so many people are saying "if the Lumia had good specs I'd buy it", so when they release a Lumia with good specs people will be all over it.

Wow I can't find a single logical or correct statement in your comment. At first you are asking why WP7 isn't on tablets and then you're saying that Windows has failed on tablets so why try? I don't understand. If you weren't stupid you'd realize there has NOT been a tablet market for 10 years, before the iPad ALL…

Competitive gamers always use wired mouses or controllers if on console. It's faster and you don't run the risk of running out of batteries in the middle of a fight.

But the major problem is that if it breaks you have to get a completely new one. You always here these stories of people having their MBPs for a long time with the occasional repair and then getting a good resale for it. With this that isn't an option, if anything breaks in the laptop they have to get a completely new…

Honestly I would buy the music if it was affordable and went to somewhere I cared about. If I want a 100 songs it's $130?? That's fucking bullshit and you know it, there is no justification for that price. And the money is going straight to the middleman, it doesn't help the artist at all, and there was an article…

But your monitors are bigger, so you don't have this problem.

Same, you just learn that way because there really is not other alternative. Although, I do also throw with my right.

That doesn't make sense, they're not comparing which phone has more options, they're comparing whether Gmaps is better than iMaps (or whatever).
