I guess the same reasoning can be applied to Surface. I really find Surface idea interesting but I find it highly impractical knowing my work habits with netbooks and tablets.

That's comparing with Surface Pro, not a computer

what is a "real computer"?

I'm not sure you've used a Surface device, either. In fact, I'm pretty sure you haven't.

A $100 keyboard case turns the iPad into as much of a computer as most people need. What do you think people are doing these days that requires a "computer"?

If you're like most people, you'll check your email, visit your social networks, flick through your favorite apps, maybe some games, and then you'll watch movies or listen to music.

I don't see what Surface adds to help anyone in that department. It might get the Office crowd all jazzed up in theory but if I crunched spreadsheets all day, I sure as hell wouldn't be doing it on some crappy ARM Surface device.
