The most comparable machine I see is the mac book air. I paid $1300.00 for it and it doesn't' even include a touch screen.
Maybe Apple overpriced their macbook air's?
I don't think anyone said it did. All I said was this surface is very comparable to an air but also includes a touch screen and is cheaper.
Even with the keyboard, it's still cheaper than what I paid for my macbook air and I get a touch screen.
To me that's better value, if you dont' agree, I'm fine with that:)
And it's really a $1100 Surface Pro, because if you're using it like a laptop, you'll want a keyboard. Still competitive, but don't be fooled.
And it can be used as a laptop, in your bed, in your lap.. not like the Surface RT which doesn't rely on the type cover but a stand that is only stable when put on a desk or table.
Unless the device is amazing, it's just too much.
