> Pretty sure the iPad will have zero of these problems when it ships, and that makes all the difference, even if it's two years "late".

i personally find that a bold statement. my iPad lasted a whole year as an apartment-only tablet before just outright dying, whereas i have the original surface, a surface pro 4, and a surface laptop that have been heavily used inside and outside and still work flawlessly. and before it died, the software issues on the iPad were endless. on top of that, my macbook pro is useless due to mac os x updates, a dead network card, and a few broken keys (that broke all on their own through normal use, no drops).

personal experience is what it is, but you shouldn't make sweeping statements based upon it.

anyway, i find windows 10 to be the superior os. i run fantastic windows apps and a linux os all from the same computer rather seamlessly.
