Does this even ship to the UK?
"What can less than $200 buy you?"
A reasonable Windows 8 laptop from eBay that features more storage and, probably, more ram than this machine.
The devils resolution!
Then I suspect you are not the target market :D
Much though I love lots of pixels, to get that on a desktop I have a 27" monitor and I don't think that is going to fit in a kids backpack or be cheap.
I would totally agree that the 15.6" panels at this resolution are a joke, not small enough to be properly portable and massive pixels.
The latest machine at home has a 1280x800 10.1" panel, I find that is just usable as a laptop (not tried it as a tablet which may be better). My phone is a 720p on a 5" panel, and for my old eyes that is way higher DPI than I can see even on a device I am holding much closer than a laptop display would ever be.
So out of interest, what resolution would you put on an 11.6" laptop display?
I got my GF the Toshiba Sat click mini which has a 1080p panel in 8.9" and its entirely usable. She is blind as a bat (she is going out with me afterall!)so if its suitable for her then I suspect it will be suitable for anyone.
Windows scaling is still terrible... but it is at the point now that its good enough for ultra portables. I'm still not a fan of 4k screens in less than 40" with Windows scaling though.
