    I actually quite like it, although I doubt I will pick one up, at least not straight away.
    Yeah right. People usually flock to what the media says. That's why it was so important for Microsoft to get a good public image of Windows 7 through the media. Everyone (except for Apple fanatics) raved about Windows 7 and the result was huge sales for Microsoft.

    The iPad has gotten a huge stain in the public eye, not just due to the pathetic name. CNN tried to glorify it a little by comparing it to the Kindle e-book reader of all things, as opposed to comparing it to it's actual direct competition of the netbook.

    When compared to a netbook, the iPad is an utter and complete failure. Anyone that gets one is literally crapping their money down the toilet, although I know Mac fanatics tend to enjoy doing that anyway because of the pretty Apple logo.

    And you obviously are... PC fanboy? Yesss I got it right lol

    How about some open minded approach?

    Don't forget that people like on these forums are in minority of computer users, majority however doesn't know much about them I'm afraid. They like to turn the god damn thing on and it should work without any hiccups... Send few email, watch some vids and share photos - sounds like iPad user? Most definitely.
