I'm gonna hazard a guess and say this will go the way of the Playbook and the TouchPad. Creston I doubt it. Plus, with Microsoft tightly controlling it, I doubt there will be many BSODs. I'd think this board is technical enough to know where BSODs tend to come from. Bad drivers. What in Microsoft's history has given you any kind of idea that they can write drivers worth a shit? Anyway, so far the Tablet market has seemed to be dominated by hipsters who will only buy something when it has Apple on it. Amazon managed to get good penetration with the Kindle because it was several hundred bucks below an iPad (and really isn't a competitor to the iPad to begin with.) Every other iPad competitor has pretty much failed horribly, no matter its OS, specs, or company behind it. I'm not sure why MS thinks that they will be different, unless they truly believe that people are just DYING for Win8. (And Balmer is insane enough to actually believe that.) The MS name attached to it is a burden, not a blessing. Well, I guess it could be succesful if they sell it for 300 bucks or so. Which is pretty unlikely. Creston
