WTF? So it's basically an overpriced laptop.
$1,000 for a keyboardless laptop? 100 dollar keyboard addons? I think I'll pass.

Don't feed the troll.
Overpriced or not MBA is a laptop, not a laptop trying to be a tablet or a tablet trying to be a laptop.
He's not a troll, just a guy who almost always criticizes Apple. At least he has good reason to in this case, but it doesn't offer one bit of defense for MS.

Purely subjective.
